Sports Package Celica Options

[trdproven]

Trying to do research on what the difference is. What I've been reading is that only the struts are the difference where it is a non sealed vs sealed struts, and that the sports strut just has a stiffer damper. which in the end is not really a difference when you are buying struts, they will still bolt on either which one you get. The bottom line here is that I have not read anyone say anything else difference besides the sticker and the GT-S name. Are there any other differences? All threads I read on are the same thing over, just the struts. I am thinking there may be a difference because for the lateral arms in the rear there are two part numbers, one for sports and one w/o sports version. The price is the same which makes me think the two part numbers are actually the same BUT, the part that gets me is that why would there be two part numbers then. Another thing for some reason, my US bought Celica VIN cannot be found in any Toyota Database, but how could that be? Its not made for Europe or Japan. I tried testing my VIN online and it pops up as invalid. but it shows up in toyodiy but it doesnt give me the definite part number, it still gives me both. I've doublechecked the VIN over and over but its all over my registration and insurance. I think it just freaked me out about my VIN not being found in US databases.

but my front original shocks are non-sealed so that means it pretty much isn't the sport package. looks like the one in the picture that shows unsealed Example
