Question Teins??

What is the most secure website to order these from? Anyone have any recommendations?

Dont know if this should be in the suspension forum, but since this is also Parts....If needed to be moved please do so!

I'm torn with buying the Koni Yellows with Neuspeed sport springs and the Basic Teins. Which one would you guys recommend? Pros and Cons...for both!

Thanks.

yes . tein basics are coilovers... so are the tein SS's.. both basics and SS's are height adjustable.. But, only the SS's have adjustable dampers.. and if you get the EDFC for $300+ you can adjust the dampers from inside the car... i am putting both the SS's and EDFC in my car this weekend... imho.. coilovers are better than just getting springs alone..

So if I want the EDFC I would definitely need to get the Tein SS's right? since they have adjustable dampers and the basics do not. Could you be able to clarify on how the adjustable dampers work from inside the car. Does Heeltoe offer this complete package?

If you get the EDFC you can do it from inside the car and that is Tein SS-P , with the Tein SS you get a little key and you have to adjust it manually underneath your hood and rear seat. The Tein Basic you cannot adjust, I have the SS and love them, if you can get the SS-P go for it.

I am sure mrheeltoe, or excellerate can get you the unit... its about the size of a radar detector... on the top of the coilovers there are little turn knobs.. the edfc which only works for teins sit at the top of the coilovers.. they are little boxes that do the turning for you... i am sorry but i cant post links for you.. do a search and type edfc... or ., go to the tein website and look it up...

yes, that is exactly the picture... i got my set off of bklynpanman... those little boxes of the EDFC go right on top of the coilovers and you run the wires into your car.. its a plug and play .. i would have opted to have not gotten the EDFC but i did t want to go throught the hastle of blindly adjusting the rears and taking out the backseat if the ride was 2 harsh... i have read a few threads dealing with the EDFC and it seems that the people that have it love it and the people that don't have it with they did...
