Murse Posted July 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 sweet get back to me on that but i also need some feedback on the ride quality of this suspension even if someone isnt using the basic set is the ride pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve1647545497 Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 The basics are good for a daily driver, if you want something that handles better upgrade to the SS. There are GB's on H-T right now for them under 700 shipped but add another 180 for the top mounts. I bet Passens prices are without top mounts too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conesmasher Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Originally posted by Slamed CRX: there are what on what right now for under 700?!?!? There is a group buy on Honda Tech for under 700 dollars. And the mounts that he is speaking about is the pillow ball mounts. The mounts are included with the kit if the catalog says so.....if it does not then they are extra. The pillowball replaces the rubber upper mount with a sperical one which improves the rigidity of the suspension and how in control it makes you feel. Being in control does not equal comfort though. They will begin to squeak and make all types of odd noises if they are daily driven......just thought you may want to be aware of that.

Guest SweeeetSilvia Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 I used to have the Type Flex's on my car. They are very easy to adjust however I was dissapointed with the ride comfort. Don't get me wrong, coilovers are generally a hard ride, however the Teins are touchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murse Posted July 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 sr22 what are you using now and how much better would you say they are as compared to the teins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 you have polished valve cover in your sig twice does that mean its extra shiny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 My 240 has Tein lowering springs and some adjustable shocks. It rides like a dream. It handles like a little go cart.. the only thing holding it back are stock wheel and tire setups. I dont know much more about them though, I bought the car with them installed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
street pilot Posted July 22, 2004 Report Share Posted July 22, 2004 I drove a RSX with a Tein setup. It was adjustable from inside the cabin. I was thouroughly impressed for the short ammount of time I drove it. Definitely a step up from a cheap shock/spring combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
