so far I know the following manufacturers who makes coilovers for 2ES/Camry:
Ksport - 92+ camry
D2 - ES300 specific
Tein - for the camry as well
ISC - australian brand that made it for the solara/camry, doesn't show on their application list, but is available through contacting manufacturer
JIC - japanese brand, good quality but rather pricey.
BC Racing - they listed 94+ Camry, but I assume it'll work, which is why i'm ordering a set soon.
Kido Racing - have zero experience about this taiwanese brand, but ebay search would find you some camry coilovers under their name.
other possible candidates:
Emotion
Yellow DPS
Ground control - not really real coilovers

I did get the KYB's indicated for the 93 models and they fit just fine. One important thing to note: There is a lower seat bearing that needs to be taken off the stock strut and placed onto the new strut assembly. This "lower plate" will be the lower spring seat for the front struts. It is secured by a screw, in which, you simply remove and install onto the new strut. The rear struts work as is.
For all important sakes, just get the 95-96 models IF you have a 92-94 models. These come with a full size lower spring seat for your front struts.
Pictures to come soon. Also put 15mm spacers in the rear, fronts did not need spacers with my 17x7 235-45 rims/tires.

yay, i'm glad i'm able to help out.
also, i wanna stress how important it is to get new rear sway bar links when you do your suspension!!
MOOG problem solvers are so far the best i've ever used. better than oem design, will never strip and become permanently stuck on!

sport springs for windom
hi to everyone. ive read all the posts and all of you have done so much work to come out with such a useful information. it helped me a lot. however im still confused. as u guys posted that solara tein springs can be used on 94 lexus es300, the solara springs also shares the same springs as camry 4th gen, so it means we can use camry 4th gen springs on 94 lexus? the reason i ask here because im in malaysia right now. im driving windom year 94 with 2.5 liter. the solara is only usa market car and for me is hard to get the teins. but around here more springs available for camry 97-99. btw maybe u now with what other cars springs interchangeable with windom? like soarer or aristo or maybe some springs can be used from nissan?it sounds ridiculous but who knows) also any feedback regarding sustec,sparks or KW sport springs? i can get this springs around here.. and is there anyone who wants to sell his teins from solara and ship it to malaysia? on the ebay i got some but the total price is around 360$ shipped. that is a bit expensive for me... and below some of the pics of my car.. the exhaust will be soon installed.. i think i f i lower it will look so nice
