  • New here with a CHALLENGE!!

    Whatsup people,

    Mecha here with a 2010 VENZA. As we all know, the industry/scene has been down for the past few years, limiting the aftermarket availability of experimental parts and accessories for "other" vehicle types. I just recently picked up a VENZA, and have the pleasurable challenge of creating a Stance-worthy project. However, if y'all didn't know there are no aftermarket parts for this car, save for the Sportlux kit, and H&R springs. The car is built on the Camry platform as some may know, so it is suspect that there are compatible parts. However, the VENZA is potentially heavier. I will be doing some investigation on the specs to compare, but if there is a knowledge base here that can be shared, it would be much appreciated!

      Pics would be disappointing, because I haven't done anything except the bare basics-Tint, painted grill, window visors and Garson knob. But none the less-

            It's dropped on 24's and "custom" coilovers. Not much in the way of "stance", but still ok. I'm trying to stay with 20's (stock size) except wider with camber and possibly some lip gloss on the fenders. I can fab a kit myself, though it would be nice not to have to, as I don't have another car for a daily. Trying to go for possibly this VIP form factor-

              So you can go with a custom bag setup and you're halfway there. This could be really interesting

              progress IS a slow process

                I've always wanted to see one of these slammed. I'm excited to see progress on this.

                  So through some light research, I've found that the Camry parts are looking more and more promising. It seems that the Camry is only 300lbs lighter than the Venza's GVWR, meaning that coilovers/air/camber parts may cross over. It is also possible that since the Camry already has a lower profile, the OEM shocks may have a lower spring cup location adding to an overall lower application to the Venza, as the Echo shocks were to the 1st gen XB. An air set up would be obviously preferred however as we all know, much more costly. I would like to try to do something in a coilover setup to keep costs down but maintain adjustability., but we'll just have to see.
