Tein or Jic

I have 2 sets of height adjustable coilovers, one set is JIC Magic and the other set is Tein HR.

I was wondering which set you guys think is better.

The Teins have pillowball tops on all four but the JICs have only pillowball tops on the front two. But i like the JICs because when you adjust them lower the hole coilover gets shorter where as the springs only lower when you wind the Teins down. When you jack up the car taking the weight off with the teins on the springs get loose. Those of you that have tein suspension in your car will know what im talking about.

Anyways let me know which set you think is better.

I wouldnt mind selling both of them and buying a set of Height and Damper Adjustable Coilovers..

If anyone has some height and damper adjustables and would like to swap for 2 sets of height adjustables let me know..

Sell em both and grab some HD systems height, stroke and damping adjustables with pillow ball tops from Unique Auto Sports in Sydney. Tell John that Geoff referred you. I'm very happy with mine and look forward to the next track event.

I have the teins on the car so i need a set to be able to take the teins off ..

I want to sell them both so i can get a set of height and damper adjustable coilovers, because both sets that i have are only height adjustable..

Im not sure what there worth, secondhand sets of height adjustable coilovers usualy sell for around $800 a set

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
