    Thumbs up ra40 suspension

    Hi,
    I recently bought a 1980 celica off this site. Factory sunroof, 5 speed and in pretty good condition. Looking for lowered springs about 50mm, most people say they only have 30-35 lower. Just going to replace brakes with slotted rotors I think as would really like vented but dont really want to go through engineering route again, done that and found to be alot of stuffing around. Striping car atm for paint however since car has blue interior and is in great condition lookind for colour other than white that will blend ok. Wheels, thinking of 16" Superlites which could allow for bigger better brakes ummmm. At the end of day, car will be for my son when he gets his license so safety paramount.. Any help in regards to paint, brakes or suspension will be greatly appreciated
