hey people has anyone got tein lowered springs in there car as im think of getting some, just wanted to know if its worth spending the extra money on the teins rather than king spring.. and before people start saying get coil overs i have had them before and loved so much but have been through to many head f**ks with them getting defected.

so if anyone can tell me what the tein lowered spring are like would be great!

The suprising thing that I found was the ride height is just right. Not too low to attract attention or as high as stock. Ride is not hard either. If you want I can take a picture of the ride height. Also note to be careful of ebay imitations. There are a lot of copys going around. I am no expert on the matter, but the guy who sold me the springs ( auto shop) said the good quality springs are cold rolled ?

i must agree with everyone else i had a set of tein lowered springs in my old r34 and they were great.... lowered it and the ride height was perfect not too low not too high and cops didnt even look twice

Im installing some in my R33 this weekend (wanted coilovers but i got them brand new for a set of batty wheels) so untill i can afford coilovers, they will suffice.

Will let you know how thy go, with before/after pics.

i too have tein super streets in my r33

ride quality is awesome. sits well on the road doesnt bounce around not too harsh on big bumps. feels good through corners too. best value for money coil overs i believe.

I think hes talking about just the Tein springs on OEM shocks, not the complete coil over setup.

But goot to hear more positive comments on the Tein coilovers, as thats what im planning on getting one day.

i also have Tein super street coilovers in my car

made everything feel so much nicer

launching, corners, driving in general

im very pleased with mine

plus they have valve adjustments so you can make them soft or hard when ever you want

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
