st and gt suspensions - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #82350 14 posts Started by SAE-HI
i was wondering if the st and gt suspensions are the same. im talking about the bottom part of the strut where it bolts on and everything. will the brake line line up like it does for the st?
I know standard ST and GT suspension is the same. I've swapped them out on my car. I think there might be a sports package for the GT that might be different but I doubt if mount points are different.

but sway bar thickness shouldnt matter about the bolts lining up right?
Correct.

as long as the end links get into the strut to bolt in.

GTS has solid struts as where the GT and ST are rebuildable... otherwise, they're all the same. GT4 has Superstrut.

GTS?? in USA no way. But ya your right about that some gt have struts that aren't rebuildable.
