My friend was talking about there is a full coil over set from eibach. I checked eibach's site but I didn't find any links to buy them etc. If someone knows where I can get the eibach full coil-over kit, that would be awsome. My car is currently undrivable because the suspension may bust. BTW: What is the Eibach kit called that has the full coil on it? Is it the Pro-Damper? I dono..

If you're in the market for full coilover systems, I highly recommend the Tein SS Coilvers.

They're about 1100-1200 bucks.

If you're just looking for a clean drop, get the Tein S-Tech Lowering springs, great ride for a pretty good price.

These will run about 160-200 bucks.

Ground control. I have been using coilovers from ebay and my stock struts for 2 years with no problems.
Its a cheap fix, and I'm happy.

Spend your money on new struts then before buying coilovers... Know your priorities man.

whats your spending limit here? if you have 1000 to blow than get the coilovers, if you have 500+, save up for coilovers or get new sways, end links, performace struts and springs.

Any way you look at it, you are still going to need springs/coils and struts/shocks. By getting a full coilover system you do get it all, but it is costly, and there aren't too many companies that make a full coilover system for the Celica.. and the ones that do are 1000+ bucks.

If you were to get coilovers alone (Ground Control for example) you are still going to have to buy shocks, which can be 200-250 for KYB's, so right there is maybe 500-600 dollars for a coilover system. Cheaper than buying it all together. OR take the easy way out and get TEIN S-tech springs for 140 and with the KYB's it will be 340-390.

Moral of the post: full coilover system does not mean cheaper...

and like Chanh said... get your priorities straight.
