Time for some coilovers :)

[Badger_01]

As the title says :D

Heh not yet, need some moolah for that. But I figured I'll see what everyone has to say :)

Thinking about Teins, but I have no idea how much they would be or where to get them from?

Theres camskill (http://www.camskill.co.uk/m22b0s2213p9640/TEIN_LOW_DOWN_SPEC_SUPER_WAGON_DAMPER-COILOVER_KITS_-_TEIN_Super_Wagon_Damper_Coilover_Kit_-_Legnum_EC5W_VR4_2_5_Twin_Turbo_) and I think my adding is correct that it would come out to be around $1200NZD? Is this right? Cause that seems stupidly cheap lol.

But yeah would like everyones thoughts and experiences :) Oh and yes I have gone on a search hunt, hence thinking about getting Teins :P

820.82 GBP = 1,602.16 NZD + shipping + import tax's,

all lowering springs suck, this is most apparent with a loaded rear seat or boot

dont forget to add $400 for the cert you have to get to stay legal on coilovers.

most second hand teins ive come accross will need a rebuild, ($250 ish each depending on what needs to be done, and anything less than the HA spec are rubbish (far to soft).

new.. the BC golds get a pretty good review,

most of the properly spec'd coil overs run 10-14kg front and 8-12kg rear

If you're feeling real generous with the wallet, you can get Tanabe coilovers.

rhdjapan.com do them last time I checked, and 41.co.nz will do coilovers as well.

Ah import tax... Never occurred to me lol. And yep I know about getting a cert, gunna do that when I've got everything that I want that requires it.

So BC Gold (http://www.hyper.co.nz/drive/suspension/coilovers/bc-GOLD-ADJUSTABLE-COILOVER-SET-(4)--MUST-BE-CERTIFED/id/750/product)?

Wow Cusco and HKS coilovers are expensive at 41.co.nz... Far out lol

These Tanabe (http://www.fortyone.co.nz/parts/show/675/Tanabe/Sustec%20Pro%20S-S%20Coilovers.html) ones are only $857

yep,

Redline Performance is the OFFICIAL BC Appointed Distributor for BC SUSPENSION in NZ.

and can be had for around $1500 i think?

[Badger_01]

Oh yep, found it. Do we still get a 10% discount from them? So it'd make it $1350?

[Gly]

i doubt it, wouldn't have thought any of the cvr4 discounts applied in nz anymore? so old!

[Badger_01]

Ah, the one for mitsi new market still works :P
