Koni yellows would be perfection. Actually Eibach pro kits + Koni should ride more comfy in theory since pro kits are progressive and stocks are linear. Pro kits also have similar height drop to 94 springs. But anyways I'm just rambling, not here to brainwash you or anything :) stock is...stock :)

Hehe, all good Tree........appreciate your feedback, at least it will educate me :-)

"but how do you improve on stock perfection??"
If you have a '94 model with stock springs/struts, then what you already have would be hard to beat for day to day driving, so long as the shocks are in good condition.
 
Apart from what has already been mentioned also check the front wheel bearings.
 
Whining from the rear?
Just a thought. I have no idea what may be causing it on your car, but I have been surprised at the sound some tyres can make. Some are quiet but some are not.
With the ones I have on the rear currently it sounds like exactly a rear wheel bearing is shot and grinding away. I know it's the tyres causing it because I tried a different set of rear wheels/tyres and the sound disappeared completely.
 

I expect the shockies may be shot too, but working my way up to them......order of priority is;

1. Ball joints and bushes;
2. Shock absorbers; and
3. Wheel bearings.

Let me know if I have the order wrong.......working on front first, then rear.

I'd like to think that if this combo was available when Toyoda San had this car made thats how it would have rolled out. I'm really pleased with my koni/eibach combo.
 
Dunno if its the best idea to replace front setup without doing the rear at the same time. A nice firm front may expose a wobbly rear! 
But jokes aside, if the front is all nice and crisp, it may really show up any failings due to age and wear in the back of the car. 
 

Agreed! I will fix rear as soon as possible after the front.....would love to do it all at once, but have spent some significant dollars on the car in the last two months, so having to space things out :-)
