Coilover List Compilation:
Many have not realized we have so many coilover models now, at the beginning we really only had the TRD and Tein SS for the most Part and lowering springs were "IT" at the time. I've come to do a full update including the new models that have been released. In fact, some have not even tested these newer models. Lowering Springs are already pretty much covered in the parts list, if I get enough votes, I'll include them here. But for now, coilovers was my major focus here.

Here We Go!

I believe Tanabe only makes the Type 2 without the helper springs, but that's not the point. The point is that tanabe's do no come with adjustable dampening. you can only give the coilover lower ride height.

Also from what other members have been saying that the Blitz have the same specs as the megan's and bc coilovers. Only difference that I know of so far is that its more of a street friendly coilover with the front spring rate 6kg and rear 4kg is much softer than the megan's!!

Another thing is that any of the coilovers listed for the celica allow for rebound. Rebound adjustment on coilovers are made for the race track. All the coilovers made for our car now are mainly street coilovers. So If anybody knows of a coilover made for our car that allows you to separately adjust compression and rebound let us know. That wouldn't be as much use to anyone unless they use their celica on the track a lot where both dampening adjustments would count the most.

Another important note is that Megan, BC Coilover, K Sport and possibly along with Blitz. all are fully threaded coilovers. Fully threaded coilovers allow you to adjust the height of the coilover from the bottom of the coilover so that you do not affect stroke travel. All other coilovers are partially threaded and if when you start to lower the coilover it will shorten the travel of the shock, thus possibly allowing for bottoming out of the coilover.
