And then I found these Tein Mcpherson Coilovers for $810 plus another $300 for shipping to California, pretty cheap huh.

Hmm, i wouldnt worry about them being on that list BonzaiCelica. That thing is kinda old, and half of those products are discontinued while other "new" products have been springing up lately.

Anwyho, OP how is yoru setup holding up. Its been a few months since you first posted this thread, and im wondering if you have made any progress with your suspension.

not yet, i havent had money. but i actually just got a good job JUST last week at a place called Bagel Me, First Class Pizza, Sugar Bakery in the city of Orange, CA. im a delivery person. they have me driving the company car so i save miles and gas. the car im driving to deliver with is a yaris. haha. and the thing about my job, im driving through the canyons to deliver all the time. i thought that was pretty cool and funny. im still not used to the city though, i got lost for the first time yesterday on the job(i didnt get lost the other 4 days last week that i was working)..but i found my way around..haha. right now im actually saving up for an auto to manual swap, and still debating on my suspension set up. also getting a good deal on gts rims that im gonna buy from my friend sometime this or next week.

i have a lot planned ahead. but i just gotta save up to make it happen..

if you can somehow fit the Tein EDFC controller on the Tein coils then that would be the best

Y'know, it really is a shame that the Celica doesn't have much aftermarket support. I really hadn't noticed before I started researching for a Miata, and it has so much more product support it's not even funny. Raceland coilovers, which are pretty decent, for $300. Nothing like that for the Celica.

yea? you should check out the after market parts for civics(eg,ej,em,ek,etc) now THATS a lot. and very inexpensive too..

Thats true that hondas have alots of aftermarket support. But does that mean the aftermarket parts actually help improve what it wants to achieve and by how much?. Sure they have a million different brands that make carbon fibre cai intakes and front lips, and c piller bars right down the full off the shelf exhausts and manifolds. And all this aftermarket sparkplug wires and breaks bar.

And sure you will have a long mod list, but how much of that actually improve the car and by how much. Im quite thankful we dont have that much aftermarket support, cmon guys we would be bloody broke and wont be able to save up for the 3sgte. And thats one thing honda doesnt have a stock turbo engine that they can drop right in. And the 3sgte has plenty of aftermarket support just that its not cheap.

Celica = Rare!!

Honda = Commonly seen every 30 sec on the streets

If toyota would of brought the 3S-GE engines to the U.S. our aftermarket support would be close to that of Honda's

That's why I didn't mention Honda, I couldn't care less about that brand.

yes People the Blitz company has made Coilovers for the ST204/AT200 and ST202 with McPherson Suspension.

probably to compete with tein!!

THey come with upper Billow ball mounts and are priced between the megans and teins. Shipping to the USA is $1450.

they look (except swap red with gold) and their specs read almost the same as BC racing coilovers, even the knob on top for the damper level and the camber adjustable front top mounts, wonder if this is the company that BC racing build parts for?

^ your absolutely right! Right down the the adjustment height locks and also the plastic shock covers it has one. Im quite curious now

you still havent gotten anything yet!?!?
its just occasional touge racing right? just get something already and start driving!!! haha

I has the RACELANDs on my VW. its really not the best, softer than I'd like and a bit bumpy but for $360 I couldn't argue... plus its a beater car

I need help. Can anyone tell me where i can find a reliable source on purchasing MEGAN coilovers? I've decided to go for those. But I want to find a site that will guarantee to have it in stock and deliver. I hate ordering from sites where after you pay they end up telling you that they dont have it in stock and they have to order it and then you end up waiting 7-8 weeks to get it.. right now im having my eyes set on this

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Megan-Racin...#ht_2287wt_1165

Pretty sure upscale auto said they got some more in stock.

thanks, ill check it out. i thought they were lagging in delivery when i last checked though. ill look into it and see who bought their megans from upscale
