a Hotchkis drop would look good...
but if you are getting bodykit, then you gotta think about it first.

If it shows where you are and you plan on driving it in the snow, can't drop it a lot ditto. if you live in a warm climate with relatively good raods then a 2" drop should be fine. i wouldn't drop it more than that because the celica already has a low stance plus even with good roads there are always speed bumps, steep driveways, etc. if you plan on adding a body kit in the future you might want to consider getting less of a drop for the same reasons..you're average ground effects kit will drop your car at least an inch

exactly what speed4theneed said, but if you decide to get a body kit in the future you can just get new springs
oh by the way with a 2 inch drop you'll need a camber correction kit and new shocks

You don't need a camber kit for your car (unless it is not a celica) I dropped mine 2" with eibach sportlines and I had enough adjustment to correct any camber changes. Although I do recommend getting better struts. I am still using stock ones and it wasn't as stiff as my old 92 celica with the same amount of drop and better struts.
