TeinSS owners - does your front suspension squeak
It sounds like rubber rubbing against something. It almost sounds like it's coming from the center of the dash. 
Anyone have this issue. It's only really noticeable at low speeds.

yea man, the front squishing noise might be the plastic bbot that came with the coilovers. I'm having alot of noise from my rear. I know the ball joint on the spc camber is dried up and cracking. I just bought energy suspension bushings for the rear sway b/c the bar slides back and forth. If that doesn/t work, I'm getting the ingalls rear camber, and that better fix it!!

I used to get some squeeking on my IS300 when I first installed the suspension.. It slowly went away.. (after my road trip to California..) I don't know how long you've had yours but it might go away soon enough?

I think I'm gonna (as soon as it stops freaking raining) remove the front sway bar bushings and wrap them with teflon tape and see if it helps.
Either that or pull the front coilovers out and check em out. Maybe I need to put coil isolators on the lower coils. Luckily I saved the ones from my Comptechs (they're a little big, but I can get them to work)
