Question about lowering, Lowing Options

[bcelica555]

I'm thinking about lowing my celica and i was wondering and anyone knew the parts that i needed and where i could get them at?

All you need is the springs. If you have the money go for the Tein's Thats what im gunna be getting in a few months.

Search the fourms. There is a good wright up in the How-To Articles.

for just a "basic" lowering all you need is a set of lowering springs, you can always get coilovers etc etc but lowering springs is the first step, and a wheel alignment is never wrong afterwards

edit: hawk beat me to it

i recommend shocks too.. (KYB GR2's) cuz when I lowered mine, I used the stock shocks up front cuz I didn't realize they sent replacement.. and after a few days of driving.. they both were blown..

lowering the car has got to be the best mod for looks, i know it handles better but ever since i got mine lowered every stares at my car as i drive by. only problem is i parked next to a high curb the other day an didnt realise, i scratched the underneath of my door, wups

1. Springs or coilovers (eBay is a good place to look for TEIN stuff)
2. Shock/struts (KYB GR-2 is a favorite, but also Koni and Bilstien)

Thats all that is really needed, but if you get coilovers and lower it a good ways, a camber kit would be good, because no one likes driving with their wheels like this "/ \". And an alignment would be nice as well.

Do you have rims?

[bcelica555]

Yea I have rims for my car and i was wondering if that might be a problem to, I have 18 inch rims with very low profile tires and I still have a good bit of room in the wheel well does anyone think that may be a problem in lowing it, or does anyone have any suggestions of how much I might be able to lower it.

[LewFX]

there shouldnt be too much of a gap if you have 18s, but your gonna feel allot of bumps with very low pros on. if you decide to change the struts and springs, might as well take out the rear bearings and pack them up with some more bearing grease. i do have some sprint lowering springs for sale, 1.5 inch drop on both sides, i miss the look of my car being lowered but i dont miss the bumps.
