hi ive got the chance to buy a set of these for my classic , what do they ride like,and how low do they really drop the car (pics if poss) cheers j

 

Would be interested in hearing about this too! Including any experience with EDFC.

Ns04

 

Have them fitted to my P1 for the last 18 months and can't fault them. They lower the car as much as you want to lower it and they're not too harsh for day to day use. When used to their max on track, B roads they're awsome.

 

how low have you got yours cheers j

 

I have a set which i shall be fitting next weekend....
But i had a few problems that i should have thought of first

1. I have HKS Coilovers and Topmounts but found that the HKS topmounts don't fit Tein's
2. for all four corners the OEM's from Subaru are over £400.

Managed to get the front top mounts for £112 new... (not for subaru) and the rear ones are second hand from Grade A for £70 inc P&p

If you do decide to get them look at the extra £100 for the Tein Top mounts as they should improve handling a lot from the standard OEM but i was told a 4week waiting on them (Demon Tweeks Motorsport, Motorcycle, Modifying, Parts and Accessories)

From what i have heard they are a good suspension kit at a very good price so worth a look.

Once i have them on then i can tell you how they ride. Right height from 330mm down to 200mm drop... ( very low infact lower than mine) have a look on my View Scooby.

 

Ive just ordered a set with the top mounts, will let you know how i get on with them. i was just wondering what ride height most folk set theres to? Its for a track car so speed bumps wont be a issue if its decked.

 

Setting up the system is all up to how you drive... best to take it on track and do miner adjustments till your happy with the setup

 

just picked mine up and they need a clean butnoticed they are set lower on one side than the other is this normal cheers j

 

I take it your saying that the front left is lower than the front right (example)?

I would say thats not normal.. you may have the rear lower than the front or vice a verse. I would give them a good clean and oil them up on the threads. otherwise you will find that adjusting the height is going to be hard...

Whats the condition of them. i can send you the book i got with mine via email if you like.

 

Pic of mine ok HKS's but will go lower than this with Tein's



pic of mine out the box.

 

they are in quite good nick need a clean ,(just sprayed threads with penetrating oil and leaving them to soak) they came with tein adjustable mounts but no spanner. it seems to be one side that is lower than the other instructions would be good please cheers j

 

Not a problem... just scanning them in know if u send me a PM with ya email add would help as can't send PM's with attachments.

 

you have pm sir , do you have any side on pics of your car .nice to know peaple are so helpful cheers j

 

On its way to you know. Hope thsi helps with anyother question you might have.

 

cheers mate , won't open on pc but will try laptop later or work on monday cheers j

 

i'm using the lastest version of microsoft office on mine i can save the file again in a lower version if you have trouble till just let me know

 

ours has wordpad 97 whatever that is cheers j

 

i'll see if i can get it in a format that will work with that for ya.

 

Had these on my 04 STI for a couple of months now and I can't fault them. The ride quality remains excellent along with the EDFC which I had fitted at the same time makes a big difference to be able to adjust damping at the touch of a button. I wasn't sure at first whether it was going to be worth the extra cash but I'm happy with the end result, well worth giving these ago and maybe add the EDFC at a later stage.
