I'm looking for an affordable coilover setup. I'm down to the Truechoice Phase 2 ( http://www.truechoice.com/products/suspension.html ) kit or TEIN HA ( http://www.tein.com/hadamp.html ). Does Zeal make a coilover system at around the same price, $1000.00-$1200.00? Any help would be great

 

Just get the Koni SA's and some Ground Control coilovers. That's all the phase 2 kit is but you can do better on the price I bet buying the GC's instead

 

Of the two, I would do the Truechoice. The main difference between Truechoice and Ground Control/Koni is that Truechoice uses a Koni made treaded sleeve and a spring hat of their own make with the 2.25in ERS springs. It's a nice system but cost about $250 more then a Ground Control/Koni setup.

BTW: I did not think they made the Tein HA's anymore? Just the Super Street and Flex systems.

 

Don't get the Tein SS if you plan to track or autox the car on a regular basis. Go for the truechoice kit.

 

He said TEIN HA not SS ..

from the experience i have, the TEIN are of nice quality + the dampners are better valved and suited for higher spring rates than the KONI sports..
i have no problem on recommending the HA setup for track use at all
since i have a few friends who's driving on them pretty seriously without anything negative happening!

tein also offer a spring program like eibach ERS for their kits and they are cheaper ( and springs are springs so.. )

then i do not have direct experience with koni + GC or the Truechoice setup, but i guess from what i've read that they are both good setups and can run for a little less than the TEINS

but agia, if you are going in 600lbs/" + rates i would recommend the TEIN because of their better ranges than the sport konis ( except if the truechoice are revalved ??? )

hope that helps!

 

dont have any experiance with the truechoice but i have tein ha's on my s13 and they are bad ****, 10x better than the tokico/skunk set up on my civic.
