Tein springs don't fit on a 4cyl???

I think shes uninformed. Suspension is exactly the same in the 4 and 6. And I know numerous 4cyls that have Eibachs on, so I dont see why teins shouldnt fit as well.

I have a 4cyl and I was also planning to get Teins in the future.

^^^ Yep. This is why most of us 4-cylinder guys build the suspension first :). The parts do exist for that (since we are pretty much balled for motor parts).
Let's just pretend I didn't grow up, or you're going to be terribly disappointed.

All Solara suspensions will fit

97-01 Camry
99-03 Solara

Most market as V6 only because they test fitted on the V6... so the spring rates are made for the weight of the 1MZ... other than that, it fits.
1GR-FE ftw!

the 5sfe (99-01 I4) is pretty much as heavy as the 1MZFE (99-03 V6), so your drops probably going to be able the same.

I believe the 2AZFE (02-04 I4) is 200-300lbs lighter than either.

Yup =P The 5S was only like 100 lbs lighter... so the drop on a 2AZ would be slightly weird (front is higher)
