Been looking into coilovers to do my suspension right the first time. I dont want to slam the celica just have it handle better and take curves better and a little faster but still have a decent ride quality. Or should i buy trd springs for 197 total and buy oem struts for em and since oem yota struts have a life time warranty just replace them everytime a strut blows?

if going low is not your goal, then TRD drop springs are fine just keep in mind no adjustability in this setup. But i've had that for my first suspension set up back in 05 and they were fine, handles good.
dont buy tein ss or basic. from all my experiences, they are junk compared to Megan and BC coilovers. Ive had sets, my friends had sets, and they are all junk, and ride is crap. the adjustability, price, design, reusing oem parts, freakin irritating. TEIN's low end products are a joke trust me. BC and Megan kills them. speaking from a budget coilover perspective. perhaps the higher end Teins may be good, but then again price goes up.

its maybe a 2 finger gap or so. if you had coilovers on your mind, one thing i learned is just get them from the start.
