#12833, "anybody ever use tein coilovers"


          

I am looking into a set of the super street's. They are going to be like 1k but 16 point ride adjustment. I have a month or more till I got the cash just wanted to get ideas on them.

i have a buddy that put tein coilovers in his s2000, and the thing handles great, but id wear a mouth guard because they throw you around a lot. then again, thats an s2000, maybe on an eclipse/talon, itll be different, but i highly doubt it. tein are the best suspension system that you can get in japan, but 1k is a little rich for my blood. i say go for it if you can afford it.
later

My friend has them on his civic that he uses for drifting and track racing.....I've ridden in the car and there is no doubt that they are high quality pieces, but they are stiff, maybe too stiff to run on the street. If the roads you drive on are smooth then id say go for it, but if they look like the ones in maryland or NY then id say shop somewhere else. Maybe take a look at Apexi's world sports coilover system or the B&G's, as they are more designed for street use.

he uses them for drifting in a civic? That'd be a great conversion to see. A civic with RWD. emoji

Thanks maybe I will look around a little more. The car will not see much actual daily driving but still the roads here are not that great.
