Complete sentences would help...

B&G makes lowering springs for the gen2 Camry. At this age, the suspension probably also would need new strut tops, struts and front lower control arm bushings (you can by them complete and loaded on eBay for cheap) while you are in there. You can also adapt the coilovers from a FWD Celica of similar years (ST182/ST184) without too much hassle - search for the threads on it here (user name 'atobe').

There's not a whole lot of room in the wheel wells on this car, but you can probably get something interesting to work with some stretch and camber.
