Talking Celica slammed on teins.... JDM yo!

no more sneek peek... here's the real deal sorry for the sub-par pix.. i did 30 pix in 30 mins lol... was getting hungry, but i hope u guys enjoy it... here's my suspension setup:

1. tein s-tech springs for 94-99 celicas
2. KYB GR-2 shocks for 90-93 celicas
3. KYB strut boots with integrated bumpstops

springs are supposed to lower the car 1.3", but i think it's more... anyways, it's still driveable... springs are kinda harsh too.. i can still feel bumps on the road, but not as bad as before.... comments would be appreciated

1.

2.

3. sooooo sexy

Those wheels look as good as any aftermarket ones you could have gotten. Looks really nice.

integrated... tht's the term KYB uses, but it's not one piece or anything u can take off the bumpstop if u want, so i dunno y they call it integrated

GR2s are pretty good so far...way better than my old shocks.. those were blown so bad tht it wouldn't come up when compressed springs are kinda stiff tho.. can feel bumps on the road, but not as bad as before

no glaze.... just claybar and a few layers of wax... could have polished it before the wax, but my arms were giving up on me i bet the previous owner would be surprised if he saw the car today lol
