Umm not really sure that I can be of that much help, but if you are thinking about MX62 cressida struts, another thing so investigate is RA60, RA65, SA63 struts (I actually swapped SA63 struts into my MX62 cressida, mainly for the better off the shelf spring options, and slightly bigger brakes). The camber between MX62 -> R/S6X celicas seemed to be then seemed to be very close to the same. The celica struts I'm talking about are 258?/22mm vented single piston things.
I had to reverse the struts to fit them in my car, was just a matter of putting the left on the right, and the right on the left With the flexible hoses brake hoses I just zip tied them to the original mounting points with no dramas (couldn't use the original ones as per stock exactly as they had the wrong angle or something, so I bent them down and then zip tied to them if I recall)
Also another thing to think about is braking bias, when I put the SA63 struts in mine, the bias was shocking! I wasn't thinking that there would be that much difference, but OMG I was wrong :S Fixed the problem by installing the SA63 bias valve tho!
Also is it possible to use a MX62/ R/SA6X master cyl? MX62 is 7/8th and R/SA6X is 15/16th, might be good options?
Haven't had any dealing with the RT struts, so I don't really have much to add, although I think they are good in the fact that there is good upgrades available? (hilux 4 spot calipers and pug disks? or I might be confused and thinking about different struts )
Cheers
