If I remember right, not all Teins have the pillow ball upper mount. Some include it, and it's optional on others. I'm sure the place you buy from will be able to tell you if the set you're interested in includes the uppers.

It's my understanding that these mounts introduce a good deal of harshness and vibration. You m ay want to take a ride in someone's car with this setup before buying them.

yea justin ur right, i forgot to mention that not all tein set ups have u/p mount. and i havent heard nething of a vibration or such.

 

I do think that the upper mounts are sold seperatly with tein coilovers. Anyway I was thinking of getting the HA coilovers or HE coilovers. If I am not mistaken the HE are more or less for drifting. Are they still a good ride on regular driving days? Or should I just go with the HA coilovers they are a few hundred $ cheaper but I don't know how well they would hold up in a heavy drifting situation.

If anyone in the Charlotte North Carolina area has Tein suspension let me know because I do want to ride around with them. Thanx for all the info and opinions everyone.

 

this should help you out...maybe?


front wheel gap


rear wheel gap


camber

All tires 205-60-15 you can always go lower with the coilovers if you really want to close that gap. Camber isnt so bad in the rear now that i have tires with tread it helped justt a little but little enough. ohh yeah and with an N1 i dont think you want to go lower than that hehehe.

Could you possibly show a side view of your whole car? I could get a better idea of how low it has gone. If not the gap views are good enough.

 

this is what i have set, its perfect in my opinion. you can go lower than that by like 2 more inches, front and back.

 

Jonas, in that first batch of pictures you put 2 pics of the rear gap Same picture. Just thought you should know

 

lol yea hes right

 

whoops lol thanks let me post the front.

 

front

 

Jonas, how much of a drop would you say you got out of those, cause it looks perfect.

 

i tuck in the rear with my 15s

 

before....ewwwwwww 4x4 comin at yah. haha yeah but out back you can lower it about another 2 inches if u wanted, up front u can lower it about another 1.5 inches. but right now its just right.

 

dude, the car looks a lot better in comparison to the nonlowered look. Did you spray paint your stock wheels? I was wondering if the same setup would work just as well with 17s or (gasp) 18s all around. I probably won't go with anything bigger than 17s but... One other question, (totaly off subject) if I started a web site with 240 parts in it would you buy from me?

 

you can easily close that gap with 17's, maybe even tuck them in a little more. yes i did spray paint them, whoohoo walmart 89cents, + clear coat $1.09. What kind of parts can you get?? my sr clip will be coming in very shortly and i might need some parts. send me the link to your site.
