Topic #28473 16 posts Started by soven
Just wanted to see who are still on their old shocks and also get a general idea of how long these things last.
I'm still on originals, and probably going to put some tein springs on soon haha. i figure drive til they blow over the winter and get new struts for autox season in the spring

1999 Celica GT
yes, im under 50k though, but ill be replacing them sometime.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
yup, and car is lowerd, i drive the piss out of it, and im at 105000
front stock back replaced car lowered 70 k
I'm pretty shure I have stock shocks in there, I guess I dont really konw what stock onces look like since I have always had thies, I need new ones but I dont wana have to take apart everything again to get them out its too much work for me at the moment.

I have 144k on the car (so maybe there not stock, I know there in need of replacement.)
Still on original shocks and my car has 260k on the odo.
JUST changed mine 10k miles ago. I'm at 150k.

YoungSurvival.Org-Celica traded for.. 350z.. traded for Mazda5.. soccer mom!
still on original, just passed 151K
the oem shocks for our car are pretty damn good! i changed my springs @ like 100k miles and drove on them for 50k w/springs and they still haven't blown. if you're still on stock shox just drive on em...they should be ok for NOW but it is better to be safe than sorry if you know what i mean
185K odo read and still riding on stock shocks
i still got mine and ive got 195k on the car beh beh! >biggrin.gif>

changed mine out at 62k to put bilsteins in with sprint springs.
Car is lowered and has about 83000 miles on it (133000km)

JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
about to hit 170K and still stock and putting some teins on in 2 weeks:P
still have mine, sitting at 91K, but I am going to replace them soon because I have S-Techs sitting around and I figure I will buy some GR-2's and put them all on at the same time..
