Jim do you know the difference between the two kinds (Flex or Superstreet) ?

Well I need to get a double din fascia through PHAT so I might get a price of him tomorrow as well for the suspension.

I will give him a call tomorrow sometime.

How embarassing, I think you were actually asking Arith at first lol. Perhaps call him Jim1 (since he was first here) and me Jim2 :D

I should of explain myself a little better when I posted it, but everyone is welcome to comment.

I like to here a few views from people on here with flex and superstreets from experience ?

They are telling me if I am not going to track my car dont get the Flex. Is that true ?

I know people who use the Superstreets on the track and they say they are too soft, if that is any indication.

Hey guys here is an update of were I am at the moment.

Today I threw away more money and ordered off the PHAT MAN some Tein Flex Coilovers. I can't wait for these things to knock on my door.

I want to say thanks to PHAT for his patience with me to pick his brain. Man you know way too much information bro. It's great to have someone like this on this site. He is an asset.

Also to the other members I spoke to about tein flex on wagons thxs for your inputs.

Need to go and spend some more money and qaulity time with the family. I'll keep everyone posted how the wheels and coilovers turn out.

How much it cost you for the coils?

And man, you cant be any more annoyed with wheels than me. Mine still havent arrived, and its been over 3 months... They were meant to have left the shop like 3 weeks ago. The guy says they ahve left, TNT say they havent. Apparently he has been speaking with TNT and they got lost in a warehouse in Sydney, but have now been found (as of last friday), yet my consignment still isnt showing up and he keeps saying he is waiting for them to get back to him?

WTF

With the price of the coils I cant disclose that but if you require any information just email PHAT and he will lead you in the right direction. All I can say is that you will not be disappointment with price and quality of service.

Now with the situation of the wheels thats why I found someone that is in Melbourne, so if he tries to stuff me around he has another thing coming cause I am local. :D

As I said they only do exclusive wheels so they get these brands very often. My wheels should be here within 3 to 4 weeks.

Just a refresher, the wheels are 19x8 with a +49 offset. That's still correct?
