go to your garage and cut your springs - eldorado style!!!

I have a set of Tein springs, they are brand new in box, never been fitted on, I will let it go for R1800.

whats the drop in height?

i think its in the region of 30-40mm.

doctor G has these and they look good on his car, and are excellent quality.

My SX is bouncing like Jenna Jameson if she was on top of me, turns out the right rear shock is seized.

I got a no. from some post for MR Steve Hurley in Hennops Park to fit a set of Koni coil overs for me. I getting it done this Saturday.

Firstly, thanks for the heads up....!

Secondly, Has anyone fitted them before?

For all four. They fit the stock shocks?. Do you perhaps have the springrate for them.

they are designed and built for stock shocks as far as i know.

perhaps this will help:

www.tein.co.uk

they're called s-tech lowering springs.

the site says that they lower the car by 45mm in front and 30 mm at rear.

the spring rates are 3.2kgf/mm front and 2.9kgf/mm rear.

That price sounds like its just the shocks, the original quote I got for Phinx's S13 was Shocks R5400, Springs R2334 excl fitment
Thats the Koni full adjustable shocks and H&R Springs.

That quote was a while back though..

Ill check up with Steve and find out... and keep you updated.

Not too sure about these things....though....

whats the brand???

cos i know that many of the available coilover kits are built in a single factory, and rebranded according to the client needs!!!

we could even get a 200sx.za.net brand of coilovers if we had the contacts and dollahs

Have a look at the Thread "turbo, wastegate, short shiters, pulleys, cam gears" i am going to cape Town in October will be driving the gold beast with this sett up.
