As we all know, when it comes to wanting to buy parts, we want the best bang for the buck that won't be ****ty and cause problems. I'm a new celica owner, and new to the forums, and I have the aspirations of wanting to track it, and aside from brakes, hoses, and cooling, I'm looking at suspension. For the most part, I've found that the BC coilovers, Megan's, Tein, and Tanabe are the ones to consider; but I just wanted know more about the reviews and performance of the coilovers and how they play out. I'm looking for a setup that's ideal for tracking and isn't a huge pain in the ass for daily driving/cruising. If you guys could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! smile.gif

Tien is the best obviously and Megan is the worse. I went with TRD springs and KYB g2 struts. Wish I would've went with koni struts and TRD springs. After new springs/mounts/bellows/struts I'm in it just about 730$. With koni I'd be up to 950-1k vs tien coilovers are 1200$ but also need rebuilt every So often. Koni are lifetime warranty even with drop.

Check out what members like Tigawoods are doing over in the project section. I think the biggest thing with the Tein coilovers is the particular set made for the Celica currently doesn't offer dampening adjustability. It sounds like that might be important to you, so you may have no choice but to go with Megan or BC.

Ksport id say are on par with BC racing...but Ksport have the advantage of their Rear Top Mounts being camber adjustable.
