I'm wondering what could be better to adaptation, coilovers and make custom shocks or buy the entire system of coilovers with shocks. like ebay

there is an Italian here CR that made custom shocks for racing and day driving car. so don't know what could be better when I need to adapt into the AT200 ST 94 celica

what could be the mayor advantage of the full kit vs coilovers with the custom made

for best adaptation, you'll need suspension that offers the most adjustability be it ride height, stiffness, camber, etc. definitely the ebay type is a big no no. if you plan to often adjust the dampening stiffness, you might want to consider getting some TEIN coilovers and an EDFC to customize the ride height from inside the cabin.

Aside from Teins there are other full coilover options you can buy. Tein's most of the time do not come complete, you will have to use some of the stock components unless you buy it together or on top of it. I believe these Teins are still 16 way instead of 32 way adjustable. Plus they are expensive. Personally, I would not buy them because they are not bang for your buck. I've tried many teins on other cars and I do not see the return on the price compared to other coilovers. But thats just me. Teins are comfortable but they cannot fine tune with the 16 way.

with the teins you have to get upper pillowball mounts which will add on another $250 to the $1300 you will already be spending.
