so did you guys get Superstrut front suspension ???

if so .... it only the struts that change the system...
the changing of shocks will be just as the standard front non-super strut ??

No, I don't think the US got the SS setup.

Shocks are different also. Infact pretty much everything is different. Annoyingly.

You got a suspension build planned mate?

i wish i did have rebuild plans !!

na my front left shock is dead, as sloppy as a wet fish and every tiny crack in the tarmac gives an almight cluncking from there!!!!

i'm not divering her till it's fixed as i don't want to f%$#$ up the super strut, that could be expencive.....

i was just going to replace, but if you have ideas on some improvment to stock, lets have them smile.gif


and yeah Doggy..... the rest of the world got the good celicas wink.gif
our friends got special, just to keep them happy wink.gif

TRD adjustables, if you have the cash.

My front shocks are stock. There's not much wrong with them.

What about the American GT with the sports supension package? This is what I have and I know this thing drives a lot stiffer than others. Is this anything close to the SS's of every were else (I really hate America, and yes, because I hate it I will be getting out as soon as possable).

TRD adjustables were going to be the thick end of 1500 quid alone. I think I paid about 180 UKP for the front shocks.

Cool man. If you'd said earlier I could have sorted something out. I know a couple of people and could get discounts and stuff....

TRD is a negatory

and pretty sure GT usdm and ST usdm share the same suspension
well yes they do so haha they handle just as well
but as for TRD in anything NO NO
too much $$ not good enough for the money
get koni adjustables

Wish I had some choice. For a ST205, TRD is about your only option.
