congrats on the tc. its a fun car as you prolly know.

I cant say what the best spring is, i think it really depends on what you do with car like racing, daily driving, or whatever.

Mine is just occasional driving but i didnt want a harsh ride. I wanted a little firmer than stock and just a little lower. So i went with the tanabe nf210 springs. they lower 1.7 in the rear and 1.1 in front. I have only had them 2 days and they are a little lower than thier specs. I think it looks perfect and the ride quality is supurb. they are only 5% stiffer than stock but it drives alot better. I would definately get them again if i had another tC. I got mine from clubsciontc.com for something like $163 shipped. I have a post just a few threads down with lots of pics.

if you want a big drop, get the godlines, stechs, or b&g (for the 01+ celica gts)

thanks, you can try the above but tanabe also has a df210s whick drop 1.7 in front and 2.4 in rear i think. i dunno

you could always get coilovers. your dropping so low that youll need new shocks which in the end will run you just as much as tein basci coilers which are $750
