I appreciate it.

 

Do you know anyone with them? Are they pretty stiff or what? I know they would probably handle better on a lighter car (my Si hatch), right?

 

ive got the tein ss's on my 91 integra and they ride good. ive also got tokico 5-ways on them which help out also....

I thought that they were a coilover kit . Are you just talking about the springs?

 

yea, ive got just the springs, not coilovers.

The reason I ask is because I'm going to do a B18C-R motor swap and I know I'll need stiffer springs (because of the added weight). I was thinking Integra rated Tein's S-Tech's would do the job. I mean, it's a hatchie so I figured I would be more than safe with those.

 

just beacuse your putting in a swap, doesnt' mean your adding another 1000 LBS, and need stiffer springs.

the tien SS's are very conservative... i have them on my stock B18C1, and its a WONDERFULL ride... OEM struts, and SS's, and i can't complain at all.

So what you think, I should just raise the springs (Tein Basic Damper) to adjust to the weight of the motor?

 

you prob could use an adjustable strut to make it stiffer to support the extra weight, which isnt much at all.

 

Anyone know the stiffness of stock Integra springs? I didn't see that in the TI article.

 

Bump for info
