Okay heres te situation.....i'm purchasing alot of crap for my Celica right now and DropZone coilovers are on the list.....OK
heres teh scenario....I want to instal drop zones but use stock shocks. I would want to lower it whenever I want but for the most part keep it at stock height. My question is that would it ride pretty much like before if I kept it at stock height but I have it at the same height.....what about lowering it just an inch? And what does "blowing out" the shocks mean....becasue I realyl dont wanan do that becasue im sure that Toyota wouldn't cover that under warrenty....I cant afford konis yet.....lol Please help? =) -Nate

i've been weighing out whether or not to put coilovers or springs in my car...ultimately, coilovers are a crapload of work. they're more difficult to install, need to be "tuned" for an acceptable level of performance, and have to be adjusted to maintain even ride height. and that is one bouncy, miserable ride.
 they're great for people who never DRIVE their cars, like show puppies. i'm probably going to use tom's springs for what it's worth.
