Coilover options

Postby Subawu lova lova » Sun Sep 01, 2013 10:40 pm

Now I know this is a well covered topic, but I can't find any info on the tein comfort sport coilovers. Has anyone heard anything or know anything about these coilovers? There on eBay for $2400. I'm thinking as these r tein they r probably my best bet, but if anyone else has opinion on coilovers for around the same price it would b much appreciated.

You can get Cusco Zeros from Garage 88 for around $2.2Kish which are around the same quality.

Last I heard is that they are no longer in production, but they are working on a redesigned system to be released later.

I may be wrong.

How many times a day do you change your damper settings to warrant the extra money on the electric wizardry?

Takes me about 2 or 3 minutes to change mine manually and I change them fairly close to never.

More like 15-30 min job to get to the rears in mine...need to take out the sub box, tools etc and put them back in neatly :x

That said, yeah I've kept mine set to 25/30 clicks and haven't touched them since I finalised the settings after they were installed.

+2. If you want the gadgets, buy a car with stock adaptive suspension.
I change mine from 8 from stiff to 18 every few days. Wouldn't pay anything to have it automatic- more things to go wrong.

"Electric wizardry" sounds awesome makes me want edfc more! The edfc was just a thought for down the track if I wanted to add that option on I want to b able to do it. Warranting the cost? Wtf? R u my accountant?. Here's the scenario if two different ppl were using the same car or your mrs is a bitch n wants a soft ride problem solved, edfc.
Don't mean to sound ungrateful for the advice n help as I'm not I do appreciate it a lot.. Anyway back to it tein comfort sports any good? Or should I look into cuscos?

I'd also agree with this, if I had the ability to change it easily I'd imagine I would make use of it quite a lot. Plus, who doesn't like gadgets? ;)

Also, subscribing as this is relevant to my interests ;)

I had a custom valved set of Cusco Zero 2E’s with the Econ (EDFC controller) unit fitted, loved the adjustability especially for the daily driving on shit Sydney roads.

The ECON 2 units have few extra features like a G meter and graphing function for some track shenanigans.
Not a soobi anymore, but still slightly dirty
