HELP!!! GEM struts, has anyone heard of them
i have found a pair of GEM struts with tein springs, i have been told they are for the eg chassis by the seller and they do look like they would fit, they have about a 5-6 inch spring on them made by tein, and the struts have coils going all the way up them so you can get as low as you want.
i am very interested in buying this suspension, but i have looked on the internet and cant seem to find 1 single thing about these struts.
if you have heard anything about these struts before, please give me your input.
they feel solid as hell and are like 14 way adjustable dampening or something like that, i never counted but they click quite a few times.
please help me find out a little more about these struts!!



I decided just to buy them cause they were such a good deal, I have done further investigating on them now and believe that that are teins actually.
The rings say tein on them and that is the only spot I have found so far besides the springs.
I forget the exact term, but the bottom perch is adjustable to lower the ride but not your strut stride. I found that out after I bought them lol.
They are 24 way adjustable dampening.
I think that gem is some sort of recharging company in Japan or something, and this set has 2 stickers on it from them so I'm guessing they have been charged twice. I have searched the number on the springs on the Internet and found nothing, so I am clueless on the spring rate right now.
Fronts say A160-ACC and the rears say A120-BIC
If anyone knows what the spring rate of those springs are please let me know

Damper adjustment is worthless. Do you really think you know better than the engineers that designed a proper damper? Any adjustments you do make will be just like the people who say their butt dyno knows how much WHP they made with I/H/E.
next person to act shitty, including you OP, will get hammered.
stop this nonsense and act like normal humans, please.
