Hi!

I'm from Portugal, I have a 1997 4 door HOnda Civic "VTi" (B16A2 engine) I need to make a upgrade do my suspension, be cause I have a a problem with a rear dumper.

I'm thinking in a Tein setup. My car is only for street use, I saw the Tein Super Street, and the Tein Flex, what you recomend? I'd like to have some confort, and maybe teh Flex are to heavy.
SOrry my bad engl~ish

Thanks

 

Hey, I just got done installing my new Tein SS set up in my Integra GSR. It's a great set up for the price. Today I have messed with the damping settings (16 way adjustable) and changing it like 6 clicks in the front and the rear really made a difference for everyday driving. The standard set up the instructions say to run is like 6 clicks counterclockwise in the front and 8 in the back. It was a little stiff for California roads (they are horrible) so I ended up setting them to 10 and 12. The ride is awesome and I can still even go softer for daily driving. Even at those settings the car handles great at high and low speed turns. I would definately recommend the SS setup for a daily driver, you may be able to save some money instead of going with the flex. Those ones sounded more like they were for mainly track use. Regardless, tein makes some really good suspension set ups.

 

my car is similar to yours. 96 four door civic with a b series(not that it matters). I have the tein super streets on mine. I love em for daily driving and they get stiff enough for track/aggressive driving. the flex's would only be worth it to me if the car were to see a lot of track time. you won't be disappointed with the super streets.

 

thank you for your reply.

yesterday a guy talk me about this:

F2 Autolife, they told to me that the F2 Type II cold be equal comparing with the SuperStreet or the Flex, including the confort, do you have some experience with it?

Thank

 

I've heard nothing but good thing about the typeII's. they will be my next coilovers for my sedan.

 

I have the tein ss's and if they are being used predominately on the street i think you would be happy with them.
