Question coilover owners...HELP

I know people who own something can tell me better than anyone. Which coilovers should i go with. I dont drive my car too much, but when i do i like a sporty feel. My other car is saleen mustang and it has a few suspension goodies. I want a comfortable ride, but i want a lil more sport in her. Is the tein ha's good to go with? any other brands. anyone have something for sale. i would like fully adjustable and dampning adjustments also. i doubt i would be messing with it much, but i would change the damning some. i have 245/35/zr20's on it. that might make a difference. My friend has a set on his new celica...there race ready...too stiff for me..any and all help would be appreicated. thanks a bundle pm me or bstylecustoms187@hotmail.com bryan

for both damping and height adj..get either teins HA or CS(this one is more softer, the comfort series)

HA is ~$950-1k, before install

Go with the Flex About 1300 before install...the ride is in between the HA and CS.

just keep in mind the HA might be too stiff compraed to the stock setup, so unless you are really used to sport car setup, you might think it's way too much

Smile cs sounds nice..so far

thanks fellas...i am still wanting other replys...i am curious about what setting you guys run with your coilovers. so these would feel as good as stock or maybe even better. i love the soft feel...and well i dont wanna lose it...could the electronic adjuster work on the cs? also with rod millen strut bar? other lil things on my mind. thanks guys bryan

4 letters FLEX
Get them and you wont be dissapointed and I bet you will keep the saleen in the garage and drive this a whole lot more.

The EDFC will work on the CS. Not sure about the RMM STB though, but I think it will work.
