Heads Up - Fake Tein S. Tech Springs

Postby Mo_GT » Thu Sep 20, 2007 11:36 pm

Hey All,
Just a heads up to let you all know that some of the fake Tein springs are now being sold here in Australia.

A friend of mine bought a set for his WRX and when he went to get them fitted the mechanic noticed that the springs were a bit different - further 'investigations' by him and my buddy comparing the box with mine proved that the springs were fake.

Tein USA put this up a long time ago but this should give you some idea:

Further to the above differences, I also noticed that the insdie packing was different .

Good warning.

The fake tein stickers gives it away.. you'd be an idiot to miss that.

It's like reading counterfeit credit cards.. it's like an art.
