1. With full A-Spec what do you get ?
2. Is it worth it ?
3. What about getting just a body kit ?
4. Are Brembos that much better for stopping ?

 

1. Underbody lip front, underbody lip back, side skirts, wing or deck lid, 18" rims, better suspension, different steering wheel, and A-spec badge.
2. If you can afford it, why not?
3. What about it?
4. Brembo's come with 6MT only unless you upgrade on the auto.

 

I love my A-spec, with the exception of an engine rattle that I am trying to figure out, it is excellent. Click this link to my car site.

The difference is the body kit, steering wheel, 18"rims sportier suspension, and upgraded brake pads with the Automatic as I have. This car runs cicles around my wifes IS300, and my buddies 04 BMW 330i.

 

Yes Brembos do help a whole lot. Defenitely better than stock......

 

im just curious, i just installed just the a spec suspension. i have noticed a little bit of a difference in the ride...its def. tighter and there is much less body roll around turns. But just by eye i really cant notice much of a diffrence in the height of the car. i know it's supposed to lower 1" which is really not that much but i thought i would notice more of a difference.

do you guys feel the same way?

 

1. With full A-Spec what do you get ?

you get aspec rims,, full kit with aspec spoiler ONLY for aspecs., front housed headlights matching the colour of the body, and painted gril/trim, interior, all the trims inside are differnt in colour *has a way more sporty look*, the seat leathers are differnt too 2tone coloured, and they are numbered off also the BLue is different for other TL blues.
2. Is it worth it ?

yes, it is numbered off, and it are more rare in other cases,
3. What about getting just a body kit ?

you can just get the body kit, but its just a body kit and no an aspec.


4. Are Brembos that much better for stopping ?

pending on what you are using it for.

 

I did at first, not till I ran into a black TL, with the body kit but it had not drop, and I could tell the difference. Do u have aftermarket wheels?............

 

O dear,,,,

Lets not open up that can of worms again..... Most folks could never tell the difference. Tires are the factor...

 

Has anyone done a before and after A-spec install measurement to see exactly how much it drops??

BD

 

not sure but by just estimating by looking, the stock is already low so i believe the drop is only about .4-.7 in

 

I agree...initially, I measured .25-.33...it has since settled, so even though I haven't remeasured (how lazy is that?), it's definitely down .5-.7. Bottom line is, the 1" is marketing fluff...reality is half an inch.

 

get a ron jon body kit.............be different

 

great way to put it lol

 

no i have the stock wheels and tires. im thinking about getting 19" iforged wheels. i think the aspec drop will look good with those wheels. it will be somewhat conservative, while still filling the wheelwell. i def. like the new feel of the ride.

 

Do you have any larger pics of your car?

 

I love my ASPEC, makes it more unique, doesnt look like ever other one of the 5 million TL's around here

 

Go to my web site on the earlier post.

 

I opted for the suspension pieces only. It was worth it for me. As for the the body pieces, I prefer the stock lines of the car although the RonJon kit is quite appealing.

 

I'm with ya. Is there a RSB accompanied with the shocks??
