Tein Super Street Coilovers

[NickR33]

Hey guys just spied these on Nengun... seem like a relatively well priced option for your GTSt... I just wonder if they are soft enough for Aussie roads...

Anyone had any experience with them?

They should be soft enough for Aussie roads. Search for bilstein shocks and you'll find a discussion regarding spring rates most optimal for aussie roads. Sydneykid gave a fewe good tips there. They are the softest coilover kits that tein offer (F4k/R4k) i think. They were released only a few months ago this year so it may be unlikely that many ppl have them yet. They are well priced compared to other kits but are marketed as an entry level product so probably are not great for trackwork, but good enough for the street. I have bought a set of Tein Type Flex which are on there way.

probably entry level coz theyre basic and quite soft. for trackwork you want hard generally ... so theyre probalby simply road oriented thus theyre entry level since theyre not really meant for track at all .. but not that many pple want track capability/hardness anyway so theyre probably quite good.

i dont like medium hard coilovers though they just shit me i want to hammer over bumps or cruise over bumps, not have some stupid middle ground where u sorta half-absorb the bumps and u end up bouncing around like a frigging cork asif you had your car slammed on its bumpstops, when its just the fact the shit aussie roads are so uneven that your semi-hard shocks are trying to absorb everyhing and bounce you round!

mind you that was how i felt with HotBits Street Race coilovers maybe these ones are better! dunno wat street race spring rates are but thyre not the same quality as tein
