I got a set - this is the result at the moment anyway

I got a new set for just over $1000 and fitted them myself - only took about 2.5 hours
with a hoist and the right tools - overall pretty happy

I'm running the Street Advance (Basis with damper setting) for SH Foz and really like them.
Unlike most coil overs (in the Foz range) that run "harsh" 7-9kg spring rates, these Teins have 4kg so are much softer without being too soft
I think that I could probably do with an even stiffer RSB (currently 19mm, but I think 22mm would be better)

I don't think that there's anything better (coil overs) for a street car. Unless you're after a much stiffer ride.
If spring rates are similar to Foz, I'm sure they'll be a decent coil over to live with :)

From the good reviews of the street basis I'm guessing the comfort sport ones are pretty good. But Are the comfort sport teins the best in their price range? http://bit.ly/13NK9cU these r what I'm debating on getting or some cheaper ones street basis or br v1.
