anyone have experience with ebay coilovers?..are they any good? just curious. people keep saying they break or whatever but i've had my ebay springs for almost 3 years with my other car. no problems whatsoever...i dont want to get too expensive. im basically the only person who drives the celica. so there wont be much weight.

btw, dont tell me to get teins or dropzones or whatever. i just want someone with a feedback who has these on.

dropzone springs are not coil overs, theyre an adjustable height crappy spring. tien springs are MUCH better, when have you ever seen a rally or professional motor sports car with a big dropzone sticker on its side?

a coil over is a spring with threaded retainers which are threaded onto the body of the strut which lets you adjust ride height. each time height is adjusted and alignment is needed, so just pick a heigh and leave it there. i can guarantee that if you rode on dropzones through some rough road and then around turns then rode in a car through the same area with tiens, that you'd chuck the crap and get tiens.
