news_vmaxxV-Maxx’s busy team of engineers have been at it again – this time perfecting and tailoring a range of effective chassis upgrades for the now criminally affordable Toyota MR2 Roadster.

This kit is a direct replacement for the model’s factory springs and has been designed to work effectively with the OEM dampers – or any quality aftermarket offerings. Fitting all of the 1.8-litre engine variants, it’s a great way to get any MR2 sitting and handling better.

As this car is now used as the basis for many kitcars, it’s also an essential when trying to make your car look believably Italian, rather than Japanese!

The V-MAXX kit springs draw heavily from the manufacturers’ impressive experience of all Toyota models. Wound from the very same steel that V-MAXX uses for its competition springs, these are pre-stressed to prevent sagging, before being shot-peened for tempering and then electrostatically powdercoated for a long and happy life.

Fitting precisely as per the OE parts, these springs fit quickly and easily and lower the recipient Toyota (or Ferrari tribute!) by around 35mm all round. As you would expect from a product of this quality, each kit comes with full TÜV certification.

Using innovative progressive winding technology, each spring offers two distinct characteristics within the one component. A softer, more compliant area for riding around on every day, as well as commuting and low speed driving – and then a stiffer section, which is brought into play when the car is thrown into corners at greater angles of lean.

It means the Toyota can be comfortable and cosseting when required, or focussed and precise when the conditions dictate.
