Theis things are freaking amazing. Rides just like stock but slamed! i took a turn going 90 when i could only do it going 60! My friend with a BMW(330ic) is gonna buy coilovers just because of my car. Any one thinking of getting them, i would highly recomend them. I took some pics but i'm waiting for my friend to send them too me. As soon as i get them, i'll post them. It took me about 4-5 hours to put them in on a floor jack. Pretty easy though.

wow, sounds awesome. How much from start to finnish, everything included did it cost? any side effects or noises coming from them? I want a low ride, but maintaining stock ride quality. I really don't need a stiff feeling. where in NY are you located?

tel1sps

Yeah pics would be nice!!!

I like the Teins... What setting do you have them on? The inboard auto adjustment device is available for those also...

bnavarro

i paided 950 for the coilovers, 180 for the rear camber kit, 170 for the front camber kit. $0 for the install, did myself! no noise yet. wonderfull ride. i'm in Long Island.

another

nice! looks tight

WebToker

Very nice. I need to order them.

JRock

Told ya coilovers rock!

That's about as low as mine. Mine's 2.75" (it settled a little) in the front, 2.5" rear. I'm actually raising it a half inch when I get my camber kits and '03 taillights done (hopefully) on Friday because with a passenger on a bumpy road I can bottom out a little (meaning my tires hit the tops of the wheelwells). Once yours settle completely you'll probably want to raise a bit too unless you don't care about rubbing during aggressive driving.

bnavarro

jrock, is ur sloppy or are they stiff?

JRock

Mine are nice and stiff. I love it.

bnavarro

never heard about the inboard auto adjustment. i had them on the standard settings. 8 clicks to the left.

mattg

looks tight. you are at the same point as jrock and i. time for rims.

There is a group buy for the inboard adjuster on the Accord V6 board. Here is the link. ===> CLICK HERE <===

For me: $900 for Tein, $0 Tein installation, $139 for rear camber kit, $139 for alignment and camber installation

2Sxy4YoMama

Did you get an alignment yet? If not, you should have waited on the front camber kit until after the alignment.

JRock

Why? You mean to determine if it's necessary?

2Sxy4YoMama

Exactly.

JRock

Well if all CLs camber the same with coilovers, he would most definitely need front camber kits if he's below 2" drop. My front camber is as bad as the rear plus with the added weight up front those tires wear even worse.

CL Type Slim

JRock,

I also have the Nex coilovers and have -1.9 camber all around except for the right front. My questions are which camber kits did you get for the front and rear, where, and how much? Thanks in advance.

2Sxy4YoMama

I guess I was lucky cuz I dropped it at about 1.75 and I only need the rear camber.

JRock

Wow so weird how the camber is different for every CL.


I ordered from this group buy:

http://www.groupbuycenter.com/buy.asp?row_id=5301

I just sent him the money order on Friday for the 67320 and 67090 kits. He said they will work perfectly for the CL (I talked to him on the phone.) I just hope getting the 1.5-3.0 front camber kit is best - I was told by the shop I got the alignment at that my front camber was -1.7 but I wonder if both wheels were the same since yours weren't....

(edit - ah sweet I just read it more carefully and he said "the camber reading for front were -1.7 deg on both sides and -1.5 on the rear." Whew, I feel better now. )

Anyway I'll let you know how it all goes! They should be here this week and installed on Friday.

CL Type Slim

JRock,
Thanks for the reply. I think I might join that Groupbuy b/c I really need them. I hope all will goes well with your camber kits.

JRock

Thanks. If you want to wait another week (assuming the groupbuy is going on, I didn't check the ending date), I can let you know if/how they fit.

CL Type Slim

Thanks, that will be great. I hope they work well b/c the front camber kits are hard to find, so few manufacturer make them.

bnavarro

i was looking at the instructions to put in the camber kit. It looks easy but u need the right tools. I don't have a bottle jack to press in the new ball joints. Gonna have to go to my friends repair shop and get them press in. Now how are they gonna adjust them with the wheels on. you have to take the wheels off to adjust them. Any clues?

4pumpedCL

You're probably bottoming out your bump stops. I'd cut them down to about 1/4 inch thick and you'll be fine.

2Sxy4YoMama

You do not need a bottle jack and you can use a wrench to adjust the arm to make it longer or shorter.

bnavarro

How so u get it out? Hit the freking thing with a hammer? There's no other way to do it. And are they gonna have to keep removing the wheel to adjust it is what i wanted to know

2Sxy4YoMama

That is right, hammer the thing. And to adjust, you need to jack up the car and turn it with wrench from under the car. You need to leave the wheel on to see it it is straight.

JRock

My tires rubbed on something for a split second on two occasions is all.
