No.We're based on a corolla platform, but the engine is a Celica engine. However, I still would not use celica components or corolla components unless specifically indicated for the matrix or vibe.Don't forget, we sit a lot higher than the corolla, so my guess would be suspension springs and components are larger than those of the corolla.But I'm certainly not an expert, so anyone feel free to jump in and correct me here!

The corolla engine is the same engine as the base vibe (1zz) The pulleys should be interchangeble. I'm not sure about the suspension set up for the srpings, but I think they are the same as well.

So the Corolla and the Celica share the same engine?

you know the guys at belle tire told me that Eibach also makes a pro-damper kit to go along with the Pro-Kit springs that they sell for the Vibe. Will that help.?

are you sure? double check to see if its actualy for the vibe. although the prokit isnt that much of a drop.i can see dampers coming with the sportlines. and the dampers arent listed on thier site for the vibe.

naw sorry I checked the eibach site and it's not out yet I guess the guy just said that but he wasn't at the counter when I asked him so I'll let that misinformation slide.
