Question 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.
-George

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...
