I would check a couple place's product catalogs. Most of the owners on this forum own GD3 fits I believe, and I am not completely sure that the two cars have the same suspension. Product catalogs from different companies will show the models that they carry for different cars. Try Tein or Mugen. I have no idea if T1R carries anything for the GD1.

Megan Full Coilover Question

I have just bought a set of Megan Full Coilovers. I already installed them but, my alignment is all messed up. Are coilovers suppose to even change the alignment?............Does anyone know how to adjust the damper on the rear struts?, the instructions aren't that good.

Any time you change the geometry, height, or reposition the valve body of the strut different from what it was, plan on getting an alignment. Doesn't matter if it's a coilover or regular strut/spring combo.

I got coilovers a few weeks ago and you HAVE to get an alignment. my toe was off the charts and it was eating my tires up. You're camber is probably going to be slightly negative, if you drive semi-agressive thats a good thing.
