The Function & Form (F2) Lexus SC430 Z40 (2001-2010) Type 4 Coilovers Kit is a height-adjustable, inverted monotube coilover system engineered specifically for the Z40-chassis SC430. Built with a long-stroke design and an aggressively tuned damping circuit, this Type 4 kit is designed for enthusiasts who want sharper handling and a lower, more aggressive stance without sacrificing day-to-day drivability.
Key Features & Benefits
- Inverted monotube shock design with long stroke — adds extra wheel travel for a planted, controlled ride over a wider range of road conditions.
- 40mm inverted piston design — increases damper strength so the shock holds up during aggressive cornering and spirited driving.
- Large fluid valve assembly and oil chambers — supports consistent damping performance and helps manage heat during extended hard use.
- Independent ride height adjustment — dial in your drop without affecting spring preload, so you can fine-tune stance and corner balance separately from spring loading.
- 24-step damping adjustment — lets you tune the ride from comfort-oriented to track-firm to match your driving style.
- Spanner wrench included — makes ride height adjustments straightforward without hunting for extra tools.
- 2-year limited warranty — backed coverage for peace of mind on your suspension investment.

It is listed for: 2002-2010 LEXUS SC430. Pick your vehicle on this page to check your exact year and trim.
Ride height is set on the threaded body or the lower mount, and the damping (how firm the shock feels) with the adjuster when the kit has one. Some kits also let you set spring preload and camber at the top mount. The Part details above list what this exact kit adjusts.
Yes. Changing ride height changes camber and toe, so have the car aligned once the height is set and the suspension has settled after a short drive.
Set all four corners before the alignment, keep the drop inside the maker's range, and re-check the height after the first drive because the springs settle. Going lower than the maker recommends costs ride quality and tire life.
The car settles a little over the first few drives. After that, re-check the ride height, the lock rings on the collars and the top-mount hardware, then get the alignment done.
Yes. Most coilovers are built for daily use when set to the maker's recommended height and a softer damping setting. Track-focused series ride firmer.

Install and care: coilovers
Before you start
- Read the maker's guide and note the recommended ride-height range for your car.
- Book an alignment for after the install; the car needs one.
Do
- Set all four corners to the same drop before the alignment and re-check the height after the first drive.
- Keep the threads clean and lightly lubricated so the collars still turn next season.
Don't
- Don't go lower than the maker's range; it costs ride quality and tire life.
- Don't skip the alignment.
