Alright.. Since im starting to get more money from work and from my sidejobs (weekend mechanic) Im going to start modding.. Mostly suspension because I autocross. Not sure if theres any other Celica Owners that autocross their car.

Just a little preview of current car.
1997 Celica ST
110XXX Miles
205x50x15 Kumhos
Everything else is pretty much stock


So far im looking at a spring/strut combo. The GroundControl seems to be a good option for a good stiff ride. I have the TIEN Stechs on the track.. and um thier a no-no. EIBACH Prokit is having good results in my friends 02 Corolla.

For struts it seems we have 2 options.. GR2 or the Yellows.. How well does the GR2s take abuse.. The only set I have tryed are in the Previa.. and well their close to being blown from all the spirited offramp/onramp driving kindasad.gif

Strut bars. The cheapest route im guessing is the GT front and GT4 rear brace. is the difference minimal or somewhat noticeable.

Bushings: Ill just wait what happens with the group buy.. hehe laugh.gif

Rim/Tire: I already have the tires their 225x50x16 Potenza 910s now all I need are wheels.. 16x7 perhaps?

Thanks!




PS: I should have put it in the suspension forum mad.gif
