Time To think about my suspension, what should i get? Options

[XXX_Mina]

well, with my engine work being done, its time to think about my suspension. whats out there that will do me justice, i wanna lower my car, get some shock absorbers, and whatever else there is to get. wats involved in suspension, what parts are there to get? for those of you that bought strut bars from DG_Performance , how are those?

what hight is best for a car with a 3sgte in it? the engine is way heavier than stock? should i get different hight springs to compinsate for heavier engine infront, because i dont have a box in the back to balance it out. what drop should i get? i want performance , not look, i dont want any inconvinences.

Just get a FULL coil over kit. They will usually come with everything and you can basically adjust anything to the height to the dampners. Tanabe, Tein, or JIC are good. JIC has the optional in car electric control that can adjust stuff from the inside.

The 3SGTE may be heavier than a ST engine but I am not sure.

You want "performance" for suspension, then just go full coil over kit. Thats performance rather than just getting shocks or springs.

I like DG stuff. Haven't put them on yet but quality seems good.

Its actually really hard to compensate for a heavy engine in the front. You have to do a lot of stuff, but usually when GT4's wanted to compensate for a FF chassis they did a lot of weight reduction in the front and modified the AWD so it could be 50/50.

The problem with the FF is that the tranny and engine are in the front causing a massive amount of weight in the front. With the Light chassis of the celica the, rear was pretty damn light compared to the front. Suspension won't fix all of it but it will be better.

Hopefully that helped a little.
