ss2 was the GT no? without the Beams?????

thought the only celica with the vvti beams was the SS3 - there is definitely no 200ps ssII offering from toyota anyway.

ss3's ain't that rare in Ireland anyway.

saw a toms altezza recently now thats a hens tooth

It might be your Figure 8s of your superstrut that needs to be changed.

Have a look on www.gt4oc.net for diagnosing whether it is a superstrut problem , they know more about the suspension on your car.

example: http://www.gt4oc.net/viewtopic.php?t=67526...ighlight=squeak


yeah i think that might be the knock when i come off the accelerator alright, the driver side shock is definitely gone anyway put it up on stands yesterday. have to get the shocks from japan €200 each (changing the front pair while i'm at it)

just want to confirm that it is a squeak and not a knock?

yeah definitely a squeak, goes away in wet conditions. slight knocking when coming off the accelerator

it's gotta be your shocks then...
if you stand on your door sills (for example) and start bouncing the car up and down, do you hear it squeaking?


yes i do, but not half as much as when in motion - new shocks or just lube it up?

Hi I my suspension is squeaking something terrible at the moment replaced the stabilizer bushing but that wasn't it, it happens when going over bumps or any uneven surface really, it seems to be coming from all four corners - in wet conditions this is not a problem so it seems to be a lubrication problem anyone got any ideas?

Hi All

First post - so a baptism of fire i guess.

I'm in Ireland and have a jap import 98 beams ss3, and im having lots of problems finding replacement CV joints - needed for both wheels - i counted 25 splines inner 26 outer - is this correct??? (its not uncommon for importers to bastardise cars) and can someone point me in the direction of website where i can get these or can i get a donor from another car etc etc

thanks in advance
