I am thinking about doing some auto crossing and was wondering if anyone else goes auto crossing in their celica. I was also wondering what would be a good and agressive spring suspension set up for this.

well after 16" you lose handling
like on my 14" rims i'm a go kart on my 18" its not so much go kart larger rims are heavier, slower, more inertia, and handle worse i'd say a 15" would be perfect but i'm running 14" for autox |

The wheels aren't as important as the tires...  It all depends on which class you try to fit in.
