I have Tein Basics all around on my 97 FWD. It's undergoing the transplant. I'm not doing the work(back injury) but the builder is really really good and i went over to drop off a ton of new parts he requested. he showed me the length difference in the awd vs the Tein in the rear. The rears are longer.
Tein seems to sell a generic kit. I can tell visually that if i were to use the fwd coilovers on the awd the rear would automatically drop 2 inches. I'd have to slam the front to compensate.
Not my cup of tea.
Is there a good set of coilovers, not $2,000 sets but more on the 700 to 1,000 price range that would be a good option?
I hate not being able to just order a rear Tein Basic coild over set and be done with it but they really don't seem to offer anything AWD specific.
Opinions on this?
Thanks a lot fellas, this community is quite a bit smaller since i left but i'm hoping there's still some folks out there that might be able to offer some advice.
