Howya I think you might need a the shock aswell from what i can determine from the toyodiy site the spring and the shock are "ireland spec" http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_E_2004_TOYOTA_AVENSIS_ZZT250R-AEMNKW_4804.html i think you'd be better off getting the eibach springs as i 've seen them for £150 (E10-82-016-03-22) rather than getting new toyota parts or even second hand, but i would check with eibach if they will work with the "ireland spec" shocks. also if you have 17" wheels and put on 215/45 tyres they will be smaller in diameter than the standard 205/55/16 . only by about 1.5% 9

Howya darran You have an irish car with the rough road package or on toyodiy( http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/p_E_2004_TOYOTA_AVENSIS_CDT250R-AEMEYW_4803.html ) known as "ireland spec" its not the springs that are different to the uk models its as far as i remember 3 smaller parts top and bottom of the springs. (i might be wrong there) i have an irish avensis but i got toyota juno 17"s with 215/45 tyres on it , the handling on the corners is vastly improved . i talked to a guy in toyota garage who had the lowered springs on his estate said it handled fantastic with the springs and the 17's but he wouldn't recomend the 18's . eibach make the springs for TTE so get eibach same model save a few bob. The springs will drop the car 30mm but because its the rough road package it'll probaly drop it by 15 to 20 mm which will look good with 17's. though at the moment i'm looking at putting on 225/45/17 's on because that would be the correct size tyre but the alloy is only 7" wide but it should still go on. I hope you could follow all of that 9

they don't have them, and they do exist cause i've seen them on my car

Very informative post, thanks for that. In your research have you seen anyway of cleaning the projector without having to dismantle the whole headlight?

Thank you lads that was what i wanted to hear

Hi I have 215/45/17 tyres on 17x7 juno rims. Will these rims take a 225/45/17 without any problems. Thanks in advance.

I'm jealous Gregore. Do you want to sell me your old grille? ;)

Hey george i just noticed your reverse light is on the other side to mine. You should get a uk rear left and put a red bulb in to it!!!

doesn't seem to be any difference between saloon and wagon. Part numbers according to Toyodiy are front right 75731-05901 rear right 75741-05901 front left 75732-05901 rear left 75742-05901 i'd say your looking at approx £200 from Mr T

coilovers will be a waste of time and money , the eibach springs are your best bet, TRD and TTE branded springs are made by eibach and you can use them with the original dampers too. The springs are made in such a way as to not make the ride to hard but if you do drive hard they will stiffen. don't know the technical details about it but if you like your car don't buy cheap stuff for it.

After 2 minutes of searching i found these http://www.ruderacing.co.uk/Suspension-Lowering_Springs-Toyota_Springs-Toyota_Avensis_%281997-03%29_Springs/c711_3875_4062_4063/index.html and i'm sure you will find more if you look a bit harder

Hi Just want to check this, The interior dome/festoon lights on a 04 are c5w/t10 44mm is this right? thanks

Hi A friend has just bought a '72 ta22 , i'm jealous. .Can anyone tell me whats the fitment for the wheels (PCD,offset etc..) and how big of a wheel can be fitted with the standard suspension height. and also what looks the best (14" 15" 16" etc...) and how wide can you run them too, basically any information on 1st gen celica wheels would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance 9
