I am looking for a set of lowering springs for an 84 celica Gt hatchback, anyone know where to find any of these.

at your nearest ricer convention. you will find a plethora of cut...i mean..lowering springs there.

lol im opting to cut the springs on my 4th gen. of course i have an extra set if i dont like it

cutting the springs does work,but it's really shitty. you may as well get proper springs.

try doing a search for lowering springs. if you're out of luck,looks like it's time to break out the torch.

i know they are made. but im on a pretty tight budget. maybe later i can get real ones, but for now...thats gotta work.

well whatever works man. I personally love home made or DIY mods.

cutting the springs with a torch weakens them so I was trying to stay away from torching them. Oh well might have to, Side note I know there is an article on the 3rd gen short shifter mod now to find it.

I believe Suspension Techniques makes springs for 3rd Gen's. I know Tokico makes Illuminas for 3rd Gen's too.

Tried both no luck on lowered springs.
