As usual i didnt stop to think about weather suspension from a Ra23 will be compatible with my car.
Sooo... should i start to panic or not??

I haven't had experience with exactly your issue, but I've found in general, Toyota stuff fits heaps of different models.
Just pull them out and check.

yeah i think i will have to do that.
but i think the front setup will be the wrong height. the struts of the ra23 r abit longer that the ta22s. we will see what happens.
i will giv it a go soon! thanks.

the rears will, but the fronts wont. the front struts in the RA23 are taller...

I got some cheap what I thought to be lowered springs out of a ta22, put them in my ra28 with no worries, but either things are sligthly different or, the springs weren't lower, cause it rides at the same height, posibly higher by about 5mm, but if the 23-28 struts are longer then I would have thought the oposite would occur, well, anyway food for thought.

the gt gas are ok, they are a very hard shock absorber when it comes to lowered springs you will get the shit beaten out of you running over bumps and stuff, the kyb stuff is ok, its fairly cheap and not that great!!! pedders i would not touch, i had sports ryders in my 22 and going along the freeway one of the rear shocks snaped!! VERY DANGEROUS!!! so now i just dont trust em.
