Finally, can't wait to install them!! My suspension setup right now blows (along with blown stock shocks

)

First impression is the amazing quality Tein holds in their products. Everything on the suspension is well bulit.

anyway here.

875.00 shipped from Tony (turboevo - po.com sponsor) probably the best price ever.

whats the ride like with those? are the spring rates harsh?

i wouldnt mind getting a set if they are only $875

MR.CLIFFORD · 06-26-2003, 04:47 PM

What kind of rubber spacers do they have for the tops?

4bidden · 06-26-2003, 06:27 PM

Thought you were selling the car?

irishpilot · 06-26-2003, 09:00 PM

DAMNNN!!!

I envy you

that is a very good price. If you do ever sell your car its all me
I love it. I have to wait for another year before I can mod my car to what I want it to be close to.

Goodluck with the install

what'cha mean?? if you mean where they mount.. u can use the OEM mounts. should be no reason to buy new ones.

jsut one quick question for all of you, do you have to get a camber correction kit with this set up? And also, when your tein struts wear out, what do you do then?

Mattsy93vtec · 06-28-2003, 07:41 AM

so 875 includes coilover and strut?

if so... i think ill be ordering some very soon

Yes, both.

Side Note: There is a really tight/long "U-turn" down one of my roads. with my GC's and stock shocks I could only do about 65 mph on that turn. Well I broke the suspension in after about a few hundred miles and went for it. I hit 100mph and I was flooring it on the turns....NO PROBLEMS what-so-ever.

I was shocked....this was on ****ty tires too.

Well worth the money. The suspension is so responsive.

Perfect ride, you can adjust the dampening of the shocks, so it's fit for any ride. I don't know much about the spring rates, but they did a **** load of research on it im sure to provide the best performance.
