Hey all, I have a 94 GT-S and I’ve purchased now my second set of lowering springs for this car and they do not fit. The first set I bought were completely wrong and the Teins I just ordered came in and they don’t fit either. They’re too small at the top and bottom. I have no idea what to do now I’ve tried to install these things twice I’ve ordered them for this car, and I’ve had the struts out now twice, so getting really frustrated and wondering what the heck it is I’m doing wrong.

Thanks for your time.

post up some pics of the springs themselves.
springs should fit regardless of ST, GT, or GT-S. I have two AT200 and have put springs/struts from a GT on no problem.
I'm gonna ask some questions just for clarification sake, nothing against you just want to be sure as well but:

Are you installing the front springs to the front and the rears to the rear? they are different and if mixed up might be why its not fitting correctly.

Are the springs you ordered for our year celicas, 94-99 and not for the 7th gen 2000+ celicas? Since you said GT-S and the order form or company or whoever you ordered from may have just seen, oh GTS celica and gave you 7th gen springs.

and lastly, are these brand new springs from a reputable company or just some seller on ebay? because it may be that they just have a box and a random set of TEIN springs and threw it all together and sold it as springs for your car when it's not.

again pics would be helpful.
