Hey guys, I just picked up a 99 Celica GT a few days back. I think it may be having some suspension issues. Whenever i hit a bump in the road or go over anything that's not flat, the front end suspension makes some pretty rough noises - it sounds loose or as if everytime i go over a bump it hits something. The rear end doesn't seem so bad. Also, on the highway, the car seems to sway alot... it feels as if it's really windy out but it never is. I'm not sure if this is a side-effect of the suspension thing, but it seems like it... any ideas?

I just heard back from my mechanic - it has a torn CV boot AND needs new struts/ springs. great... lol. So I was thinking a set of KYB GR2 struts, but i'm not sure if i want to get lowering springs... would it be pointless to put a new set of stock springs on KYB struts? Also, where would i look for strut mounts?
