[quote=Niskyspy,Jun 18, 2005 - 11:05 PM] [quote=latinomasfino,Jun 18, 2005 - 12:51 AM]yea unfortunatley celicas looose more oil than normal well at least mine does also check for tranmission leaks...umm timing belt it depends how it looks id say go ahead and change it ...also chaneg ur struts in teh back and the shocks in teh front [right][snapback]300855[/snapback][/right] [/quote] ok, cuz I only had one Toyota before it was 90 corlla and it didn't loose any oil at all. But when I asked the dude about the oil he told me that its fine. So I was a little bit confused because all of the cars I've ever seen or had never lost most of its oil before the change. WIERD!!! [right][snapback]301119[/snapback][/right] [/quote My car also looses oil fast, it seems that im always having to put in another court. My car cant make it to the next oil change unless i want to ride on empty for a while. |

QUOTE(Valo666 @ Jul 17, 2005 - 2:32 PM) I used the S-techs and GR2s as well, if u dont have any body mods, it brings the wheels nicely up into the fenders. Very sexy drop. Ill show u what it looks like/how much clearance it gives.    that last pic is with almost new tires..like 15xxxkm on them. N its from the fender to the sidewall. It tucks it up nicely. [right][snapback]313348[/snapback][/right] My car looks more like yours, so im guessing thats similar to what mine would look like after shocks and springs. What size rim does your car have? Thanks for the help and pics |

QUOTE(Jaws4God @ Jul 17, 2005 - 11:47 AM) I don't know much technical things about cars... but i believe most people have said that springs and shocks are the way to go.. I am sure some of the people on here can explain why thats true.. if it is.. here are a few pics of Tein Springs and KYB GR2 Shocks:   [right][snapback]313302[/snapback][/right] Wow your car looks so clean , i think i might have to go with the shocks and springs. Around how much was it for them both? Thank you for your help |

QUOTE(Jaws4God @ Jul 14, 2005 - 11:40 PM) i say do what most have done on this site... go with lowering springs and shocks... I went with Tein springs and KYB GR2 shocks... Ride is AMAZING and looks awesome... Most people tell me that coilovers are not the way to go.. [right][snapback]312542[/snapback][/right] Hey i have a 95 celica st and i was thinking about lowering it. My friend told me that coilovers would be a good way to go, but you say just get lowering springs and shocks. I was just wondering if you had any other information on that or a picture of your car after lowering. thanks |
