Just got the last set of Tanabe coilovers in the US for now. $830.00 plus tax and shipping.
The ST sways front and rear, TwosRus endlinks, Cusco sturbar and upper pillowball mount camber plates have been waiting for these coilovers so that they can all go in at the same time. Woot Woot.

Dayam, so so jealous right now. Are you setting the car up for track use or just street use?

Lol, I phrased the question wrong I think. I meant to ask, which particular ones were ordered, which from the listed ones fit a GT Celica?

Question about the coilovers. Are they the Tanabe Sustec Pro S-OC's? If so, do they include the top mounts? I've heard they dont.
Oh yeah, any pics yet? |

Oh yeah, any pics yet? these are the tanabe sustec pro s-oc type i models with the helper spring, height adjustable only they do come with top mounts, they just bolt into the stock location entirely, the only thing is the pillow mounts are not adjustable like many of the other options of coilovers for the celica. what urbandork has done is purchased the cusco adjustable pillowmounts to adjust the camber of his wheels. being able to adjust the camber is not even completely necessary... its just another area that if you can make the proper adjustments you can make better use of your tires  i'm going to have this same set up soon hopefully
