Default In the market for springs

Hi everyone. just lettin you know i'm a college student and i can not afford coilovers...lol

so i'm in the market for lowering springs and ebay has them for 250+ for an SC...but surprisingly the supra springs are cheaper?

would 86-92 supra springs fit a 93' SC? i was under the assumption our cars had the same suspension or practically the same.

this is NOT an advertisement! just a reference point.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D2-RA...Q5fAccessories

and i found some others for a 93-98 supra that are made by Falken.


input please!

true anything off a MKIV will be compatiable with the SC but only the 93-98 not the MKIII/86-92.
