2nd Generation Modding

Well, well, well, I plan on doing some major construction to my 1989 LE Camry.
I am looking for some "universal" vertical door hinges for the front, and suicide hinges for the back. I just want the hinges so I can just replace my hinges, and not the full door. I am also looking into getting some springs to lower my car. I was wondering where I could find this equipment, and if I do it myself, how long would it take me to install. I'm not sure about the price either so if you could help me out, it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Can't help you with the door hinges. Theres no one here with a gen 2 Camry with vertical doors or suicide doors. Maybe try searching with google.


Suspension parts:

^ I made a list in that thread with part numbers and places where you can buy the parts.


Basicly your looking at Intrax springs and Tokico or KYB struts.
