Yep.

They're amazing coilovers, especially for the performance/price ratio. My friend has them on his MK3 Supra and they're amazing. Take note, they're very stiff. I'm guessing they'll be in the $800-$900 range.

yes, they are stiff. The adjustment does help a little though. I just like fact that you can set the ride height as you like. I don't have that nasty wheel gap anymore. You can check it out in my profile.

The adjustments for both stiffness and height are nice. How much did you pay for yours?

Megan is going big now? They used to be mediocre before. Just went to their site. Did not see any. Where did you find them?

Their price won't be $1050, I'll guarantee that much.

Look online once they become available later in July and you'll see prices in the $800-$900 range.

whats the spring rate?

95CelicaST

#16

If their street coilovers are the same then the spring rates are 8K front 10K rear. I just installed these last night on my friend's WRX wagon. The ride is AMAZING! I'm purchasing a set when I can. I set the dampers to 17 and it was perfect for DD.

spring rates will differ among the type of vehicle its going into depending on the weight, weight distribution, and amount of leverage the suspension components put on the spring. Your friends wrx is heavier and thus requires a different spring rate then our cars.

Can I assume all suspension for FWDs Non superstrut suspension will fit all celicas, hatch, convert, and coupe?

ST/GT/Vert/Hatch/Coupe all use the same suspension...

exceptions:
GT4
Superstrut vehicles


oh and Megan racing uses THESE SPRING RATES for the 6th gen celica

Spring Rates: Front 10kg/Rear 8kg

- 32 Levels of Adjustable Damper




(this is opposite the WRX because we are FWD and different body weight)

cool stuff...so dumb question but is it possible to get them in something other than the red plate...(black) i wouldnt want white black and random red coilovers..

95CelicaST

#23

You would have to get them anodized another color, because the camber plates only come in their red.

thats why i love suspension parts...they never match the color of your car...these look good but im still curious as to how the ride is...bouncy, rough, smooth? i know it all depends on how you set it but for a DD application is the ride somewhat smooth?
