hey guys
with the suspension turning into rock, I thought it might be time for coilovers. And the only two that make the full coilover is Tein and Tanabe. Which do u guys recommend? I read some previous post and one guy complained the Tanabe were hard on the ass. The best deal I found for the Tanabe Type II was $1019 and $1189 for one w/ helper springs. Thanks guys |

they're both not worthy of the $ IMO
at least as far as i cen tell the Tanabe's don't have an adjustable pre-load and Tein's don't for sure i've HEARD of springs that allow you to adjust spring rate, white to me sounds....impossible, but the pre-load might be what the person was thinking about. Both are good, but the Teins can be had for $800-900 when on eBay at the right time, so...i'd go Teins jsut to save the $ and basically get the same thing. keep in mind Tein's don't have a upper-pillow mount, at all for us. i think C-One's appear to be the best coil-overs for us, but i can't read japanese
