Give it some time. I'm almost positive that Tein will come out with some.

The rs*r springs rake more in the front and have less front wheel gap than the Modellista.

+1. Teins are typically overdropped and undersprung. I also don't think they've ever heard of a forward rake.

In Japan, TEIN makes the Street Basis Damper and Flex.
RSR makes springs (Ti2000), Super coilvers and Luxury best coilovers.
Tanabe has the NF Sustec Pro coilovers available as well.
