hey guys i finally bought some TEIN SS for my TL they came in today and i just got home from work and decided to take some pictures
Im going to try to install them myself Tomo i hope everything works out. I already took out the sets and wheels 2 days ago.










Where do you guys think i should put the TEIN sticker at?? can you guys show me pictures of them on your car if you guys have one already??


And here is my car



Sorry i didn't know the pictures would have been this big

 

Nice!

 

good luck with the install man. cant wait to see it after the drop.

 

^Thanks!!!
Im still debating on 1.75 or 2 inch

 

^both because now you can choose!

 

^lol what do you mean?
Are you saying... to try one and then the other?
Is it hard to change it once is already on the car?

 

Keep it clean, keep the sticker off.

 

I am personally banning you Scott. Next time you post up that comment I'm coming over to your pad and removing the buttons N,I,C and E from your keyboard! Lol! Jk

OP, good luck on the install. You will love the suspension. Getting tbe edfc unit too?

 

^

Drop FTW! +1 No sticker on car.

 

haha yeah im going to prob get one later not sure when tho...
I already spent 4g in one month on my car lmao
its hard to keep from buying stuff for her lol

 

4G's? thats a less than my wheel and tire set-up LOL!

i know what you mean though. its addicting. you'll also have to get a new front strut bar to allow for the install of the EDFC motors. it never ends

 

^wow thats alot for the wheel set up.... i only had the car for 7 months.. i still have alot to do....andno it will never end there is always somthing lol

 

nice. post pics when the install is done

 

^will do im going to get ready to start on them in 30 mins

 

Congrats and good luck with the install!

No stickers FTW.

 

+1 no stickers FTW n its time for u to get some sexy ass rims

 

Good luck with the install. It will look nice

 

how you didn't get the upper pillow mount? or did you?

 

^Do i need it.
Im using the stock top hat if thats what your asking
and i didnt get to finish.Something came up. i might get it done by next week haha ill keep you guys posted

 

the Tein SS for our 3g tl don't come with pillow mount, you have to use the top hats of you stock suspension.

 

hey guys i just finished up last night and went to get a alignment today
I will post up pictures tonight when i get off work

 

Awesome! What did you ended up lowering it to? the recommended height?

 

Awesome...you'll definetely have to share some pics and the settings you put the coilovers at. I'm interested in hearing how they ride compared to stock because I'm at the moment looking to drop my ride as well.

 

i hoped you slammed it buddy! lol

 

how low will it drop to?

 

Look at some of bforbrian's pics. He did/does have just the "T" on the bottom portion of his front door towards the front wheels. Looked tasteful if you're gonna do it.

 

Cool, I have been happy with my Tein SS so far. Post pics of the drop.

 

+1 and we mean bottom out the perchs

 

Congrats! and please no stickers.

 

Alright here are some pictures i took

BEFORE








AFTER









AND HERE SHE IS





Im not liking how it is so this weekend im going to lower it 1.5

 

^ oh yeah and i did set it as the maual said 1 inch from the thread

 

Good choice. Lower!

 

actually you should probbaly wait a week or two. The springs will still settle a little bit and will be a little lower..

 

^Although very good and 100% valid advice.
I will say the springs will *not* settle that much.

 

^^ well i was going to change it this weekend anyways so if it get lower then i will leave it as is but if not then 1.5!! lol


or 1.75....

 

what did you set the stiffness at? i set mine at 8F8R.

Nice viper keyless start btw???

 

How's the ride quality compared to stock?

 

Damn that looks great.

 

I set it the same haha 8F8R
Yeah its remote star

Umm...i haven't really driven it that much yet but when i take a sharp turn the car doesn't feel like its pulling me like the stock would.. and it feels like a sports car lol i cant really explain it but i like it drive great so far. Its worth it

 

Yah after you lower it more.. dont forget to get an alignment after a week or so!
