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.

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