I simply can't make up my mind and I've applied alot of what I've learned on this site to my car. I trust that this will help me make a decision. >>

TRD springs are the way to go. but i was to choose from what you have there I would choose th Eibach springs. Or myabe those new coilovers for the gt-4 or the ones that Tein makes.

would the coilovers for a gt-4 fit perfectly?

Nope, the rear suspension is different on the GT-Four. You'd have to do a lot of work to get the Tein coilovers to work I bet.

if you go with coilovers and dont replace your struts you are in for one bumpy ass ride.

the ones that tein makes are specifically designed for the GT-4. Do they have some for the 6th gen celica??

i would go gc if i have $$$

my friend has the dropzone's, they ride just fine with the new struts. i think i'm gonna go with those too. plus you can raise it up for winter!!! >>

Do you guys think that dropzones will still be crap after we upgrade our struts tho ?

I've read alot about suspension setup in these here forums.
The concenus of opinion general seems to be towards Koni Yellows or KYB GR-2 shocks, however, as for the question of coilovers or springs,
I don't think anyone has come up with a definitive answer or listed the pros and cons.

So let's get this straight...
(...and I should point out here that I am by no means an expert
and all info. comes from reading peoples responses)

Coilovers
Adjustable - Yes (range between 0 - 4")
Rideability - bouncy
Price - @$130 + (dependant upon make)
Extras:
You're going to need new struts...ummm!
(How long will the struts last before you need to replace them again?)
Camber kit (advisable if going for a 2"+ drop )
Wheel alignment - required everytime you adjust up and down.

Springs
Adjustable - No (range between 1 - 1.75" dependant upon make)
Rideability - firm and precise
Price - @$75 + (dependant upon make)
Extras:
None

Draw your own conclusions.

You all have been alot of help, that last post convinced me. Drop springs are the way for me. I looked around alot since I started the pole. The general feeling on coilovers is alot of versitility but high maintenance. On the other hand there is no adjusting a spring but overall good ride qualty without changing the struts. In any case if I wanted to adjust them all the time I would just put hydrolics on, and thats not my style. Once again 6gc.net came through. Thanks again. >>
