[dsm96rs]

Okay thanks. I just dint know which setup I really want. Both good setups and all. Kinda....almost....same price. So I don't know ha let's vote it up. Which setup? Votes please and thanks haha

 

[dsmcrazy267]

so better ride setup than tokico hp struts and tein s springs?

I'm running tokico hp struts, and tein s great combo

 

[dsm96rs]

Good combo? Well there is vote number 1

 

[bjmauck]

Springs and struts or tein basic coilovers. New springs and struts are the same price as used coilovers.

 

[bmwtuning]

eibach are great springs, you wont be disapointed .

 

[dsm96rs]

those are good. but are tein s springs good too? any experience? good springs for the money?

 

[bjmauck]

dsm96rs.. You hi-jacked my therad!

 

[dsm03]

This goes without saying..


But.. Most times, I say Most.. not all

there is no such thing as Good for Cheap..

Pay to play for good products..

Like Most run KYB AGX's with either Eibach Pro or H&R Sport.

If you got the money Buy some Koni's!

I'm running gr-2/ eibach sportlines. Unless there is good level roads over there, sportilnes are to low. My car bottoms out easily, but I can't complain. I only paid 75 bucks for all of it from a junk yard

#### Tein and their garbage over priced shit.

I have ran the tokicos and thought they kinda sucked. With what you are stating, go with the Eibach Pro-kit and the KYB AGXs. The adjustables cost a little more, but you'll be happy when you can do a little fine tuning.

I was in your shoes a couple of years and chose to go with Tokico to save a few bucks. Figured its a name brand and shouldnt be too different from the others. Ended up switching them out after a year. If I remember correctly the Teins are a little stiffer than the Prokit. The Tokicos are way soft.

And you'll probably need a camber kit for the rears, but theres a cheap fix for that. Should be a thread on it.

I'm riding Megan coilovers with a 1.5 drop and I couldn't be happier. The adjustable dampener makes them golden for just about any application. I had them cranked up to about 8 when I was ripping around Calgary, really stiffened up my car (with sway bars keep in mind...) and back down to 25 for the xcounty trek to Toronto. Nice smooth ride
They're in the same price range as the Tien basics (got mine for 900CDN, new), but the adjustable dampener really makes them stand out. You might get lucky with someone trying to sell a set.
I've had coilovers with no adjustment, and they really start to piss you off after a while...

just my .02

Oh, and please please please get an alignment and save those tires!!!!!! Toe kills tires much faster then camber

[dsm03]

so yes or no on the tein s springs and tokico illumina?

From my experience, any of my friends who had teins in numerous vehicles, I did not like them at all..

So eibach or Megan then haha

 

[SubversionX]

Listen to everyone when they say not to go more than 1.5" or the pavement will eat your chassis off your car, along with your bumper, sideskirts, and dignity

 

[kdiddy01]

well i have Tokico blues and Tein springs....and yes an alignment is a bit of a wise idea
