soooo the setup on my car now is how it was when I got it. (the springs were cut) so my struts are horribly blown and I always bottom out, it's embarrsing when I give people rides.
okay so the aftermarket lowering springs that companys offer dont lower my car to my likeing. So I was thinking, some cars came with the MacPherson strut setup besides celicas, (like other Toyota models and im pretty sure some 240sx's). Is it possible to swap springs with lighter cars with the MacPherson setup???? Coilovers are out of my price range right now. Thanks for the help if you understand what I'm saying  -Frank This post has been edited by stl95celica: Mar 22, 2010 - 2:42 PM -------------------- -frank

If you want to go low and not bottom out your only 3 options are riding on air suspension or hydraulic suspension or purchase springs that are very hard with no give. Ride quality in the latter will go out the window as you will be feeling every bump.
