What Other year Parts can I Use?

I Have a 1991 Toyota Corolla dx sedan. And I Was stupid Enough to let my friend cut the springs :[[ I Mean IT WAS BAD ASS! It really does look good!

<a href="http://s1124.photobucket.com/albums/l574/ssevo713/?action=view&current=76625_141637989218460_1000011 677935.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l574/ssevo713/76625_141637989218460_1000011677935.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos" /></a>

It Looks Clean as hell! But This was THE DAY they were done. I Didnt realize how much More it would dropped. x/ Now My Car is Lop sided sort of. and i have a torn CV boot on the passenger side and My Alignment needs to be redone :/ Now im just going to put it back up to stock height, BUT! new springs are expensive! and the Junkyards around here are SURPRISINGLY scarce with my car, soo I Wanted to know what years are compatible with the springs? Cause there's a guy on craigslist here, who has a 1994 corolla that he's parting out, Im sure that the springs might be the same?..
AGAIN Im not 100% sure. so is it or not?? ALSO!

I Need new headlamos but again with new parts and my car. Can i ALSO use the 93's headlights? I Dont Care if there's Modification involved, I just want to know if the grille will still click in place? Or are MOST of the nuts still in the same place?

I Would Like To know all This information Before I Go and Buy parts to experiment..
THANKS!

hey man, if you look at my link below of signature, itll take you to my build page, it has a full write up on putting the 93-02 suspension on your 91 corolla. what your going to need is the 93+ top hat, strut and springs if you want to go that route... itll all bolt up, just that the 93+ springs are bigger than the 90's corollas are, so that is why your going to need to get the whole strut assembly.

Thanks man, I'd really Like to do it and all and i even read about someone installing a sway bar. It all sounds great! But im really trying not to put extensive time and money into it because Its My Daily Driver Im 18 i still go to school and i work and no one really helps me out. im just trying to get my car back to stock...

UNFORTUNATELY! the reason why, is because im going to be selling next year around income tax to get an '08 Lancer GTS but im trying to maximize my profits without spending to much money...

yeah i understand... wells i dont know if youll even get anything outta the car though, they dont usually ell for much, i bought mine for $800 and im a enthusias of the car. but then again gas here in cali i now at a all time high at $4 a gallon for 87, so maybe... but yeah, even if you do most of the things me or mot people, you wouldnt get much outta it, its more of a satisfaction of driving it, than profitting from it... but best of luck and yeah i wish i kept mine from when i was 18 LoL! you always go back to the begining...

Damn fuckin bad ass! Lol I just don't like your corolla cause the bumpers aren't black lol other than that it's almost like mine! My interior is the same except I have the 10ft automatic shifter -_- lmfao damn thanks alot man! Your thread just made me want to keep it even longer now I know I saw a thread somewhere where some guy changed his exhaust to the 93's but had to modify it? I think you responded to that? Idk that interested me too!
