So my Tein Comfort Master Type CS coilovers are getting very tired lately. My front left seems to be completely dead and my rear left probably isnt far behind.
I have considered rebuilding them but the last time I had the wheels off, half of the actual body of the shock crumbled away from corrosion. So that option is out.
So its time to research new suspension. Im after something that can soak up some pretty terrible roads when paired with 18" alloys and can still be fun on the windies. Also adjustment is important, in both height and damping.
Im not too impressed with how my Teins have fallen apart, but this may be down to the cars previous life, and also Im not sure how old they actually are.
Iv had BC BR-Series before on an old 1600 Mivec and they seem to be great quality and well able to support spirited driving but they were a little too solid on bad roads from what I can remember. And I aint getting any younger. But their option to lower the entire shock as opposed to just the spring is a big plus
Iv never had D2's before but Iv heard good reviews about them.
Standard shocks with lower springs are a no.
All of the above fall into my price range but Im not sure what is best suited to these cars (Legnum Vr4) so I was hoping to get some opinions or experiences from fellow members who have had any of the above.
