What brand coilovers...

Hey guys, I've been browsing these forums for quite some time and its the biggest help to me with my 240. Time for my first question:

With my clip I got a busted set of coilovers and I have no clue as to what brand they are to get them fixed. They are not Tien, I know that much at this point. And they dont look too much like the cheap MR coilovers.

Any ideas guys? Thanks for the help in advance.

Thanks for the replies guys, I'll check to see if they're Kei Office coilovers or not. I know they're not Tien because Tien has different adjusting nuts and has Tien stamped in the camber plates.

I usually spell it Tein but I dunno, flukes in our live eh? Yeah I checked out some pictures of Kei Office coilovers and I think they're from Kei Office.... I sent them an e-mail but they haven't gotten back to me yet.

Thanks for the help guys.

Little things bug me too.... like my crappy windsheild and things I know are there but will never need repair...
