Coilover Question

[Hanso]

Does anyone run these Tein coilovers in their Stags?

Type CS WGNC34 DSN78-R1SS3

I'm looking at buying a pair & wanted to hear people's opinions who have them in their Stags.

I have a Series 2 RS Four S.

Cheers,

Adam

Just looked them up on the Nengun site where they are listed as discontinued. Are these a 2nd hand pair? They are advertised as being built for comfort (4kg front and rear) as well as improving handling but they appear to be fully adjustable as to damping and ride height so I guess you should be able to make them suit your purpose. Are you going to use them front or rear and what are you going to do for the other axle?

The new wagon ones replaced them:

Lower end

http://www.nengun.com/tein/basic-wagon very limited, 4/4

http://www.nengun.com/tein/super-wagon better, 4/4

http://www.nengun.com/tein/super-flex-wagon i think they are same as normal flex, so decent for teins, 6/6

Higher end

They are 2nd hand but have been rebuilt. I was going to use them front & rear. My stock shocks are on the way out so I thought I'd rather replace the stock suspension with coils. At least then I can adjust the height of my Stag to suit how I want it to sit.

My S13 had GAB Prosso Zeros which from memory were 10k front, 8k rear. Great for the track but bad for daily use around town. These seem definitely less stiff as those, but still better than the stock setup I have now.

Cheers for that, I wasn't sure where the CS's fit into the scheme of things. Thanks for that.

Keep in mind, yours is an RS4-S, which has slightly different mounts the the rear, the RSFour gear wont fit.

I would go 6/6 rates if possible.

auto stag is eye all round, 260RS/Type-S(all factory manuals) are fork rear mount shocks.

The rates for the coils I just won (woohoo!!) are 7k front, 6k rear.

Hey Hanso, as Ryan said above. You need fork type mounts for the rears of your car. The ones in the pic are eye mounts.

lol...i might buy the rears of you?

[Hanso]

Can I modify the suspension arms or the coilovers so they fit?

If I can source other coilovers, I'll let you know. I'd only be chasing the same amount as that I paid for them on Import Monster.

not worth the money to mod the shock to fit IMO, i wouldn't mod the car to fit, as then when you need to change the shock what do you do?

Import monster can prob aid in resale?

Too easy mate. Hopefully eveything works out somehow but if it doesnt and you want to off load the set, or just the rears, let us know!

Thanks
