I bought a 1/4lb texas double from Wendys last night but I ate it already.

J/K, but seriously, that's the same coilovers I was looking at. Let us know what you think and don't forget your pics.

When I got my car, I thought it was just lowered on some cheap ebay crap. Turns out that it has Teins, coilovers with the adjustable dampening system, now I wanna get the electronic thing to adjust it from inside the car. However I heard from somewhere that it might not clear the hood.

BTW my car didn't come with the wrench for adjusting the height, so now that's one more thing added to my list of problems related to my Prelude.

Just buy the spanners from TEIN, or from a dealer. They are like 20 bux or so.

as promised....here are the pics w/ the tein flex's and rota c8's installed.

As far as what i think about the tein's, they are fun! I dropped it about 2 inches in front and rear, but need to raise the rear just a tad b/c it rubs when i go around corners. Its a nice ride, a little too stiff for daily driving when they are all they way on lvl 16. I ride 8 in front and 6 in back and its just right. Sorry the pics are so crappy...my digital camera sux and my car is dirty...oh well you get the point.


before (when car is clean)


teins



Circuit 8's (w/ skunk2 lugs)


Finished product (When car is dirty)



Let me know what you think, I know some of the pics need to be resized but I dunno how so if anyone could let me know that would be great.
