Buying used coilovers
I'm looking to buy some used coilovers for Gen3/4 Camry. Anybody trying to sell a set?

search in the For Sale section or post in the WTB section. Word of advice though, depending on your price range, used Coilovers are not worth the money unless they are real cheap.

Just buy new ones. If you can't afford them, save up.
I've learned most times it's better to wait and buy something new and of quality.

I hate piggyback on this thread but do gen 5 (2002-05) coilovers fit on a gen 4 (97-01)? I know the springs have worked for me in the past.
Thanks

From what I hear they do. Pretty sure the suspension setup is almost identical for 1992-2003(?) Camry/Solara/ES300.

No. Gen 4 and Gen 5 are completely different.

Yep. As for used coilovers....have you looked into getting regular, new struts?
