my personal opinion is do not waste your money on Ksport coilovers. They suck. But thats just my 2 cents

As for Teins you can do a search for Tein super street coilovers for the V6 Camry/Solara. Another option is the JIC FLTs

I second Smitty's notion...ksports are crap. I had them before on my ES and was disappointed. I bought JIC's later on and decided I would never get anything else. Tein makes the SS coilovers for the solara that will fit the ES, but Tein does not come with mounts. You have to use your existing strut mounts, which makes installing it a bit of a hassle. With the JIC coils, you get mounts for the rear and camber plates for the fronts, a direct swap. The JIC will run about the same price as Tein if not cheaper. Go for JIC coils and you will not be disappointed.

yeah, in terms of quality, jic is top not monotube inverted. but they are expensive, and a biatch to rebuild. ksports suck, but i love the stiffness, and they are local in az, so i get them rebuilt by the next day.
the basics are crap, get the latter, the gt pro

Goodluck
