So I'm in a debate..., To lower or not to lower... Options

[blu94gt]

So I've been thinking a lot about the next mod for my car. Right now I'm waiting on my sway bars to come in, but after that I'm not sure what I want to do. I've thought about KYB AGX struts with Tein S-tech springs, or waiting a bit and doing a 3sge swap. About the suspension: I'm not sure if I want to lower the car any, or keep it at a stock height.

I was thinking today as I was driving down some muddy backroads that I've always loved how versatile the Celica is; with my old mud tires I could actually go anywhere my friend's 4x4 Nissan truck could and do it faster. If I get a tighter lower suspension I'll be limited on how much off-road performance I have like that. I kind of like being able to follow my Jeep and truck friends right on into the woods to go camping and such, but then again I do 98% of my driving on streets and want to autocross.

hmmm...

It would be helpful if you would list your mods in your profile. I would go with a nice set of sports shocks. The will help for track use but keep you higher. I've been looking into it, and I'm begining to think that if I was going to lower for performance a set of coilovers is the only way to go. I wanted springs for a long time too. I'd say for now, put the sway bars on and then see what it feels like it needs. Strengthening the chasis is always a great idea. Did wonders for me.

haha I don't have any mods listed because my only true mod other than gauge lights is my TRD Shifter.

And like you said, I want to see how my sway bars help handling before making my decision. I like the lower look but the higher versatility
