Default Looking for Tein Coilovers.

Hello all

I am in the market for some coilovers. I found a set of new Bilstein PSS's for 893.00 shipped which is not bad, but would consider other brands if someone is selling a set for a reasonable price. Can pickup in So Ca.

Thanks,
Lee


Found a new set at a great price. Thanks Steve

I am on the exact same quest as you and just like yourself would rather buy a used set of Tein Flex coilovers that are in excellent condition but less than the brand new Bilstein PSS coilovers. Not had any luck so far.

Here is the thread I posted regarding this:

And here is a thread where someone is selling the Tein HA coilovers.

Got a new Tein Flex set at a great price. Thank you Kam and Steve (not Gantz). Got them home and they are flawless. Should be mounted within a few weeks once the kitchen remodeling is complete. Now looking for a EFDC setup.

Thanks Ham, I think Pearl started a thread a couple weeks back that they were backordered on shox.com, I wanted to know if he found them somewhere else

Based on this post, I don't think he got the Bilstein coilovers!

Hameed,
Correct
They are the Teins.
Shame they have to be installed. They look too nice in the box.

Just take a pic of them in the box and then blow it up and hang it on your wall and sell me the suspension. It's a win - win situation for you!!

Hameed, your too funny man. Signs of a good negotiator.

I think having two very stubborn and head strong sons (a 6 and a 4 year old) will make anyone a good negotiator!!! I am constantly negotiating with them. It's pathetic. You don't want to break their spirit, but at the same time you need to have lines that should not be crossed.

It's tough being a dad!

Default shocks

hameed just get the JIC magic FLT 2A s and you'll be a very happy camper. i couldn't wait till jan for the bilstein and then i read about the jic's. i had them on the car that same week in early oct. i hate to wait for something when i want it right now. you can get them now, brand new , not someones old tired used ones. and they are incredible. just give steve at carson toyota a call. if you want to feast your eyes on some beautiful shocks check out the jic-magic.com website. ivan

Question Tein Flex

I have a set installed in my GS. I am thinking about selling it though because I will be getting a new GS eventually. I paid around $1500(with receipt) installed about a year ago. I don't do alot of driving since I got out of the Corps, so they are in very good condition. I don't however know the going price for these. They are complete ans would be shipped in the original box with tools, keys, and manuals. Anyone have a good idea on a reasonable price? Oh, and the springs were replaced by the guys at Tein USA for softer ones too.
