I figured since they are cheap... but i'm also guessing they are just springs... for cheap springs that are adjustable... whats the advantages with these? |

They are okay.
Infact they are perfect. PERFECT! This is the greatest deal i've ever seen in my life. I'm willing to bet that these will increase horsepower 500 to the wheel! Plus allow your car to fly! Guy, common, it seems that your new, And thats awsome, but E-Bay is full of cheap crap. Dig into the stickys young skywalker, Brouse the forms all that you can, and on the top right of the screen there is a button that says "search" and that is your portal to all the information you brain can handle (and then some ) Welcome to the fourm, forgive me for being a smart ass, and do your self a favor and dont ask about ebay's "electric turbo" & "super-charge/gas saver chip" there will be no end to the flaming. (those things are about as usefull as the load i just droped after taco-bell lunch ) Remember you get what you pay for, So if you wanna buy em, you'll suffer. (and after a spring breaks and your car plumits into the pavement, you wont be thinking about how happy you are by paying that low-low price ) Check out these (if those little things are the route you want to take; and keep you stock struts): http://www.andysautosport.com/toyota/1994_...ground_control/ But i'd go for theese: http://www.andysautosport.com/toyota/1994_...coilovers/tein/ This post has been edited by D-Man: Apr 22, 2008 - 3:32 PM -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!

If you are on a budget get the tein s techs.
D-man, what are you talking about? Ebay is not crap. I gurantee you a lot of the users on here looking for NA performance out of their 5s get their header from E-bay. And you can find pretty good deals on s techs on ebay too. I see Ebay as a bargain lot. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer

Sorry ya'll, not trying to be an ass, but everything i've ever bought from e-bay has been crap... and lasted about a week or less
Let me rephrase my last post... "IMO; EBAY IS CRAP" it'd be tight if we could replace the smilies with characters from Cyanide and Happiness. EDIT* bccentaur3, you do make a good point. Alot of headers (and other items) do come from the bay~ I see people with good stuff, but i cant find crap that isnt ... well... Crap. I suppose i just haven't found the right seller yet...

Buying on ebay is only going to get you quality things if as a BUYER you are smart and selective.
I've bought many parts off ebay, all have been good +1 But if you don't pay attention and be selective you get crap. |

its true you just really have to look at what you buy on ebay ive bought most of my car parts from their and they are good quality. the products I buy off ebay usually are linked to their actual website where they sell much more performance parts and so forth at the same price or even more so i think ebay is the way to go most of the time. I only go for the buy it now price bidding on items takes to long.

Honestly, its not worth it. Just get the Teins and call it a day. Its not worth trying. Just like the electric supercharger. Its not worth your 40 bucks. Just use that towards a full tank of gas.

Okay? Now compare those to the bottom ones. Look at the d2, tein and Ksport coilovers. Hopefully the pictures explain enough.
