Well, still waiting on parts since the more I take things apart, the more parts I end up wanting to replace. Here's my teins that finally came in...this pic shows them assembled using the stock shocks mounts:


and here's some parts that I found out I needed to change after taking things apart -- Lower front ball joints, tie rod ends, and rear control arms (haven't gotten them in the mail yet):

How much did you get your tien's for? I'm in the process of redoing my suspension. I'm on ground controls w/ kyb agx. I regret going coilover/shock comb, i should have gone with true coilovers

Why do you regret it?

YodiBrodi

never ridden in a car with full coilovers. i know the spring rates are higher but how is it. how does it compare to the spring shock combo. better be about as many times better as it is times cost

While you have all that stuff apart, why not do a rotor/brake upgrade as well ??

2000Accord5sp

I wish I could. Having no money is probably the biggest reason. well, the only reason.

I'll eventually be doing that...I'm planning on the low budget legend caliper upgrade with brembo slotted rotors along with steal braded brake lines. Some day...

The teins were $980. You can go to http://www.tein.com and look for local dealers in your area. I called several shops and they all quoted me about the same price.

i coulda done it for $900 flat but anyways... good choice by going with the Teins-you get what you pay for...
