i made a PDF of all the coilovers we've mentioned, any idea where to upload it?

Ask coomer if he can upload to 6gc.net for you.

Initially our cars really had only the Tein Basics Coilovers to choose from aside from lowering springs. Here is the updated list as follows.

Known ones:
TEIN SUPER STREET- GT and ST

ST204, ST202(excluding Superstrut models) and AT200 are all the same chassis, just different codes for different countries.

So.... the bc coilovers have to be welded into lower part of superstrut arm? Do the Megans? I'm looking to get the Megans today. Don't want to buy ones that I have to weld in.

For the GT four, any of the coilovers, I believe have to be cut and welded, unless you're buying Coilovers for the Superstrut Suspension.
I believe Tien and TRD (Correct me if Im wrong) are the only companies that make Coilovers designed for superstrut, and are A) expensive as hell, and B) Very hard to find.

If you're planning to run the Coilovers on your Gt or ST (as listed in your profile) that is running regular Macpherson style struts, then you won't need to do any welding, simply bolt in.

Cool,The KYBs and Tien springs keep bouncing like crazy when I drive through the city. Especially on the real passenger side.
I'm looking for a smoother ride. I want it like my old Celica when the ex-first drove it home from the dealer. I miss her; The car that is... biggrin.gif

And yes, I kept the car in the divorce!!

thats what I keep saying Teins are crap, or at least as far deep as i know it, some people may like it cus its not that low but its crap for bad roads, bouncyyyy. springs or coilovers no good.

I'm planning on getting some coilovers in the near future. Would I have to do any modifications if I was to install these onto my 1997 Toyota Celica GT? I am running stock suspension besides the AG lowering springs.
