Default New Suspension and Strut Bars

Hey everybody I need to replace the suspension and strut bars underneath my celica due to the previous owner hitting a snowbank and rust they have finally given out on me.

Does anybody out there have any suggestions or recommendations for great replacement parts. I am looking to find a more sporty set up that is great for taking corners fast on back roads that are not always smooth.

ebay is always good. if you can afford it coilovers are great because you can adjust them. all depends on how much you want to spend. you can get some pretty good strut bars, sway bars and new bushings if you spend the money on it.

Replace your bushings with polyurethane ones. Looks for Energy Suspension or White line, they both make good stuff.

besides getting a huge like roll cage or chassis braces which would have to be custom made, a smaller steering wheel might help you feel the road better, better tires/rims, lighten the car up, and some aero things like spoilers and diffusers

If you have a 7th generation celica and are replacing the entire suspension. I would suggest Tein coilovers, they are about a $1,000 but you get what you pay for. I have them on my Infiniti G37S and they are amazing. This summer I am installing a full tein coilover set on my celica because my stock suspension needs some work.
