Had a quick search but couldn't find anything, looking to lower my celica I was wondering if someone with experience could give some advice/recommend some springs, also how hard of a job is it to install them yourself?
Thanks |

How about these?
SIX adjustable coilover kit Never seen anybody here mention these springs/coilovers. Another question regarding adjustable springs - Is it possible to rise your car before winter and lower it after? What else would you need to adjust with it? We usually have a lot of snow on our roads during the winter, and lowered car could be problematic in such conditions... -------------------- |

The thing about those is that aside from the fact that the spring rates are all wrong (way too stiff for oem-spec struts) they effectively shorten the stroke on the struts when you use them to lower the car (just like lowering springs do, however lowering springs only lower a certain amount, while these allow you to drop your car stupid amounts) -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold
