HEy guys i wanna lower my car prolly an inch and a half-2 inches with a coilover kit. Does anyone here have the Tein kit? I know Tein is a pretty good company but their coilovers were like $1350 for our celica! Whats the best combo of ride comfort, performance, and value?

So the koni shocks are called "Yellow Shock Absorbers"? I just wanna knw so i know what to tell them to order at the shop tommorow. Also, with Koni shocks and eibach sportlines will the ride DEFINITELY improve significantly over stock as far as feeling the divets, cracks,bumps , etc in the road?

well, how many miles do you have on your car? maybe your stock ones are shot if you're ride is so bad right now. as for the Koni's being more comfortable, thats not what they're meant for, quite honestly I can't tell you if its better than stock, but it sure handles a lot better.

see if your stock shocks are blown, bounce the rear up and down, does it come back gradually or pop up fast? if its the latter you might as well get some stock kyb's and call it a day.
