Hi guys,
I found a Tein distributor here in my country. They told me I could put a Super Street Tein Suspesion kit (coilover type). What do you guys think about this? mi goal is to drop my celica like 1.5 inches. Plus, it migth be the chance to update the whole suspension because is old. |

what is the point of the upper camber plates?? i know you can adjust the camber on the front wheels by hand for better cornering if your doing autocross or on the track. and with added camber to the front wheels you will be sacrificing tread wear pattern...
But what is the difference between TRD Suspension Mounts vs KYB Suspension Mounts vs Cusco or C-One upper pillowball mounts. the cusco and c-one are made of full metal as to where the KYB are not and the TRD ones are a bit strong than kyb (OEM Replacement) -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts

But what is the difference between TRD Suspension Mounts vs KYB Suspension Mounts vs Cusco or C-One upper pillowball mounts. the cusco and c-one are made of full metal as to where the KYB are not and the TRD ones are a bit strong than kyb (OEM Replacement) adjustable top mounts are just an easy way to adjust the camber, not really the best way, but an easy way. The reason you you would choose a pillowball top mount like the cusco over a reinforced rubber top mount such as the trd is that there will be virtually zero movement in the pillowball mount, so you have better feedback and the suspension geometry works more accuratly, the reinforced rubber are just a version of the original top mounts with less possible movement in them, you might choose them over the pillowball mounts because they will last a lot longer, and pillowball mounts can sometimes be noisy and trasmit more vibrations etc into the chassis.
