Is there anything i can do to my 1990 Toyota Camry as for suspension. Please help me. I have been trying for a long time to find after market springs that would lower the car or coilovers or anything for performance wise suspension.

summit racing has intrax lowering spings, and tokico and KYB both make struts for the car. the tokico are only for servicable struts, or the KYBs are for non servicable and servicable. The tokicos are slightly harsher than the KYBs supposedly.

What is the difference between servicable and non servicable struts?

^ Theres 2 pictures towards the bottom of the page.

With serviceable (non-sealed) struts you have 2 choices. Replace with insert or replace the entire strut.

With non-serviceable (sealed) struts, you have to replace the entire strut.

so this

TOYOTACamry (4cyl, Excl. ALLTRAC)87-91 75.1.002 Spring V2 1.5" 1.5" 30309

would fit my 1990 camry. it is a 2.0 litter engine with manual transmission and front wheel drive.

the alltrac was all wheel drive. is this correct.

is there a store online where i can buy the srpings and struts?

so i would have to get both the srpings and struts, since they dont make complete coilovers for this model that have the strut and spring built in together. is that correct.

so let me get it right. this gen 2 camry only have struts and srpings as far as suspension goes right.

Please use the button.

yup

jackfrost1031 · 04-28-2005, 07:52 PM

yeah, unless you want to pay someone to fab up some adapters of some sort to use coilovers.

By the way bro, make sure to replace your strut mounts when your replace the struts and springs because i didn't on my 89 gen 2 and now they creak like the upstair's neighbors bed. I've had the intrax spring/ KYB GR-2 strut combination on my car for 3 years. I installed em myself when i had auto shop back in high school which was fun. Oh you can go to www.nopi.com to get both, not sure it they have the best prices though.
