Anybody got experience of Teins on a classic scooby? I've recently been out in a few verra fast mitsubishi evo things :Suspiciou around a track and was blown away by how compliant yet controlled the ride felt compared to my Cuscos (imagine putting bricks between the coils of standard suspension and you're approaching the ride quality).

Can anybody rebuild + revalve the Cuscos and suggest some more suitable springs, or my local tuner (whose work I trust implicitly) will do the Teins at a very good price, fitted and geometeriedised (:wonder:)

Which is the better option? (I know you're just gonna say ASTs now)

Well done for thinking correctly. (you know they make sense)

On spring rates, for track days 60/50 N/mm are great, but the dampers need to be able to workwith them.
I'm sure I've read recently that someone had Tiens on a Classic and was well chuffed.

The other word you needed is:

Aligned (= geom...etc) :D

AST's it is then.

I preferred geometeriedised :lol1:

I know ASTs make sense, but the Teins are really being offered at a good price... Plus i like the company :D
