QUOTE (Box @ Nov 30, 2012 - 6:52 PM)  Of course the car should be fun, but it shouldn't beat the Hell out of you either. I want a nice blend of comfort and fun, and the 325 or SC300 would meet that. I went across a bridge that joins the two main highways of my town, doing the speed limit mind you, and it jarred the Hell out of me. The roads around here just aren't suitable for the Celica being lowered. Do you have struts capable of handling a drop? Those springs have a low rate, and combined with OEM everything else should provide for quite the bouncy ride... -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Brand new KYB struts, everything was adjusted by a Toyota dealership after the springs and struts were installed. It doesn't bounce, that's the problem. Unless the seats are just in that bad of shape. I looked up the tires on the NHSTA site and they check out ok. Our roads are atrocious though, even main highways are crap and full of dips and holes. The road that leads to my house is gravel that's been tarred in place.  Once I get out of town and onto the better roads it isn't so bad. What I get for living in the middle of nowhere I guess.

Congratulations, you old(fashioned) f*ck. Allow me to buy you an e-round.
In other news, I had a taste of 2ZZ yesterday. Tasty. That lift profile is something else indeed. This post has been edited by SwissFerdi: Dec 2, 2012 - 9:06 AM -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

Thanks Ferdi.
Today I was greeted by a RSX with a primered door, missing rear bumper, and a fart can. What a great start to the day. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

Got complimented on my "old celica" by some real old old guy. Its good to know no matter how old you may be (or get), there is still a common ground when it comes to favorite car models.

Did you do a write up on it? There's a link for one in the sticky, but the link is dead.
