This is what he is using as a lowering method

is that a guess cos they look like spring compression tools which would interfere with the suspension travel,

he might just be using clamps which really should only be used at shows to lower the car that little bit further while stationary (it usually says it on the box)

Ok... Still the same method still the same results.


No clamp or press should be on a loaded spring that rebounds and coils almost 10 million times a day!

Ok A-im not talking about the tool, and B-do wee need to get so negative here I mean come on, go ahead and spend all the money you would like, I have had them on my car for almost a year now and havent had a single problem.

Now you have to understand we are trying to tell you thats is the wrong way to do that (aka VERY helpful advice). Im positive you dont know everything about 6GC's more or less cars for that matter(not saying you dont know anything just not everything). Most of us are here to help people to expand the knowledge of not just celicas but cars in general, from simple electrical problems to full engine swaps. Playr is one of the best people to talk to about susp. so take his and others advice to heart we've been around the block we know whats proper and what can damage.
