I have just bought and installed progressive H&R lowering springs 29964-1 for Toyota Celica T20 (3S-GE 2.0L engine, 129KW, chassis code ST202). Immediately after install, i noticed clunking noise over even slightly rough terrain. Also noticed that two lower coils are binding together when the car is stationary with no extra load.
 Is this normal? Are those dead coils supposed to be there? Should i buy some sort of spring silencers? My setup includes brand new KYB Excel-G shock absorbers. This post has been edited by wazzuu: Sep 16, 2012 - 2:17 PM |

Please please, PLEASE, do a search.
This has been covered mutiple times, and very recently as well. Your Springs either aren't seated properly in the strut, or there arrow at the top is not facing the correct direction. Search, and you'll find out what Im talking about. Edit, just noticed the noise isn't cause by turning. This clunking, could be cause by worn out top mounts.
