Welcome lupous. I've got a 99 SLE I bought new. I usually just trade cars in every 2-3 years. I liked driving the Solara so much, I started fixing it up making it better instead of getting rid of it. Have fun, there's a lot of good info here and guys that have done it all. -JoeB

struts: tokico group buy at the FOR SALE section
springs: Eibach/Vogtland also at the FOR SALE section
Tein's at www.groupbuycenter.com

or you could always fork over $1200 for the JIC FL-2T's...
