Anyone know anything about Tein suspensions? I found a good deal on a whole coilover kit, but don't know much about them. Anyone?

Excellent stuff.

Performance oriented, not for comfort.

Yes, they are very nice, and I'll be getting a set of Tein SS when I do my suspension (hopefully soon :paranoid: ), since they discontinued the HAs :no:

Which model are they? That's an OK deal if they're new depending on model. The shop that I'll go through will do the SS for ~$1k installed (~$100 installation).

Its the US version of the HA. Same spring rates as HA from what I've seen, but a lower minimum drop.

Tein is definitely more performance oriented.

Tein stuff has been imported into the US for quite a while now.
