bilstein twin tube.. .well yeah I guess you could call it, rather its just an upside down strut.

I have bilstein sports on my AE92 and they're tough. I'll recommend them.

Bilstein doesn't make sport struts for Corollas.

All the applications I have seen so far were only the Touring class ones, which are similar to an OEM replacement type strut (eg. KYB GR-2), and ride much softer compared to the Tokicos.

If you want something more performance-oriented, then get Koni Yellows or GAB struts.
