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

I"ve used the coilover sleeves before.

If you do not plan on driving this car often or hard...go for it. Cheap and can lower.

But, expect it to slam. Mounting the sleeve itself can be troublesome, and difficult.

They really are just for lowering without driving IMO. I argued their value a long time ago, but after doing it right. They are a waste of dough.
