I don't have any experience with the Zeals, but I know there are some people using them and I've heard great things about them. I'm sure they will jump in..

what is the intended use? daily driver, autox, track?

Tein = rust in toronto if you drive it in the winter. 100% gurantteed.

B2 is very streetable. 80/20. B6 is about 50/50 street/track

now, or before?

I personally tried: Tein HA, Tein RA, Zeal B2 and Apexi N1 99 spec. Tein RA outperforms any of the other coilovers but too stiff for my taste.

I have Tein SS's (HA's w/o the helper spring). The fronts have 22 clicks of adjustment, and the backs have like 25 or something. Not sure why. But anyway, the ride is really plush at anything below 10 clicks. You really have to crank it up to 12 clicks before you start getting into the "harsh" territory. I'm very happy with my Teins. They track perfectly over uneven pavement (like railroad tracks) when I load up the suspension in a turn. I haven't experienced any rusting yet, but it hasn't rained yet either. But nonetheless, I spray the threaded collar part with WD-40 every now and then just to clean it up.

They are chromoly steel, I live in Chicago and there is alot of snow and salt during the winter months.

The ones I have came with the pillow mounts and they are pretty stiff for the street, but not bad. They are noticeably stiffer than stock on the lowest setting. They are 6 way adjustable front and rear so tuning is a bit easier and you do feel a difference between each setting. They would do well for street/track use..

i just got rid of my HAs for a set of ZEAL super functions. the SFs are so stiff. i love the construction and they are incredibly light. the SFs actually compare to the TEIN RS or RE i believe, cannot compare to econo HAs and the RAs are starting to become old tech as TEIN pushes the RS and RE. (i think its RE no?)


in any case, i love my ZEALS
