Good news!
Tein Japan has Tein HA Coil overs. Contact Tein USA and see if there can get them for you. Tein USA have the TEIN SUPER STREET Damper in development. Contact them also on this. But the HA would be a better setup. -------------------- West_Minist

Do those HA coilovers fit the models without the super strut suspension, or is it just the super strut cars or the GT-Four?
And there is going to be a Tein Super Street damper available? Will it be produced for the sixth generation Celica? -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

You must be forgetting that this is a 6g forum. I would not have put down for 7g. There stated 94-97-99 Celica ST200, ST202. No mention of ST205. Check it out. Thats why I stated to contact Tein usa on Tein Japan for the HA models. http://www.tein.co.jp/hadamp2t.html There have for both struts The SuperStreet Ones for the USA are under development. http://www.tein.com/ssdamp.html This post has been edited by west_minist: Aug 24, 2003 - 3:25 PM -------------------- West_Minist

I think Ill go for it, as long as the back sway bar hooks up still, this has to be beter than doing koni inserts with coilover sleeves, I love the way my car handles but I think there is room for improvement, and having a system designed to work together like this seems to be the best option, Ive been waiting for this for a while good find.

I saw the TEIN S. Tech Springs for llike $100 - 110. I'm thinking of getting them but I just want to know if anyone knows how they are. People are telling me that they're like the Tenzo-R and APC of Japan (I'm takin it they say they suck). What do you guys think?
P.S. A little plug here... I'm sellin a 96+ front and rear bumper together from a GT Hatch. Gotta sell them together cus i wanna get rid of them unless I find someone who wants one of them and another person who wants the other part at the same time. K thanks. Just let me know. |

Ok, I guess they're just haters cus they drive hondas and they don't want to see Celicas like ours rising. But anyways, yeah those people who were hatin on the TEINs could hook me up with that price and I also saw it on importhookup.com as a groupbuy. But I'm still thinkin about getting them unless they develop the coilovers sometime soon. I've been email bombin them about if they're developin coilovers for the 6th gen but they probably haven't even acknowledged my emails.

My boy has some teins coilovers on his sc300, they ride pretty good, but kinda bouncy still, due to the fact that we havent really messed wit the settings. But the drop is pretty low. I'll post pics when i get the chance.

ABout these Tein Springs, they are on e-bay right now for about 120 + shipping. Im pretty sure this is a good deal, hearing that these are good springs. Im looking for a low cost alternatice to eibachs and H&R's. Can anyone give me some more info about the exact drop they give. Ive heard 1.4 in front and .9 in the rear but i just wanted to check.

I have the S-Techs as well. I love them. I enjoy the ride more than I did with my Ground Controls. The drop is 1.4 in the front and .9 in the rear.
I have 205/50/15 Yoko's on my car and the wheel gap is approx. 2". No more than 2" though. Now that i think of it, front might be about 1.75"-2" and the rear is 2". I took pics of my car once i got them installed 2wks ago, but my boyfriend borrowed my digital camera today. If you need pics let me know, I'd be happy to post them. Only they'll probably be hosted off of imagestation. |

I've said in an earlier thread that I didn't like my teins. I have since then started to like them alot. They don't bounce at all. In 2 weeks they settled to an nice height. I've got new kybs in the front but my back struts are factory original. When I was putting the springs on and had the rear struts off I pressed the strut cylinder down and it did not come back up( they are blown in the worst way). I stuck them back on the car with my new springs anyways,expecting the rear to bounce all over the place, But the rear doesn't bounce at all. Well worth the 110 dollars I paid for them off of ebay brand spanking new. Tein springs made me a happy camper
