You made a good choice with the Zeal B6's.

The zeal's come with the complete upper mount. The tein super streets are more comparable to the Apexi WS dampeners IMHO.

OK, I’m somewhat of a novice on suspension mods.
The way I read is that you can adjust the stiffness and height of the car…right ???
The fronts could be easily adjusted by raising the hood, but how would you adjust the rears without removing the back seat?

Tein SS vs. Apexi WS
I'm really questioning the difference between the two.
I have some Apex'i WS on order for a really good price and will be willing turn them around to get the TEIN SS if they are really much better.
Other than the adjustable damper is there anything that makes the Teins better?
Granted they are not Zeal B6 coilovers...

hey guys, the HA is actually supposed to be the same exact thing as the SS. At least it is for the Accords. All TEIN did was get the HA coilovers that they had for the accord wagon, test fitted it on somone's(AccordingToMe from AV6) car and is selling the same part under a different name.
