looking for springs for a corolla FX-16

[the_morbidus]

Ok, so at the garage where i work there is a customer that has a corolla fx-16, recently he brought it in with noise in the front left side, i lifted it up and well a broken spring, the strut/dampener was ok.
So we are from Toronto and well the car is a US specific car i think, don't think it was ever available to the canadian market, we can't find the parts...Anyone knows of a store or online link to where i can find what i need?? Even if its a complete set of spring+strut, hopefully i can convince him to replace but front ones.

im in london, ontario, and i have a full set of brand new lowering springs in the box for the fx-16, if you/he want them? i'd let them go for 100$ (plus shipping if you had to ship them), but since im so close that shouldnt be too expensive buy any means.

but ya, youd probably have to go to a toyota dealer and special order them, because ive never seen a fx on canadian roads. and the stealership prices will be brutal.

if he doesnt want to fix it, tell him i want it, and itll have a good life...

nah, this old guy loves his cars, he has a US 88 or 89 supra, also an Aurora Cobra, sorta a replica of the shelby cobra.

the body is in fair condition with minimal rust and his wife barely puts any kilometres on the car, i wish i could take the engine off it, anywyas i should have a reply by tomorrow ok??

just gotta talk with my boss, anywyas we tried the dealership and no luck since its been discontinued, even parts supply companies like Motorcade and Gap had nothing for it.


lukily for me, parts for my ae86 arent that hard to find
