i was on the tein website to check the specs on basic coilovers for the ed3 and realized that the only ones on their list was for the ed8 and ed9...i know its probably the same, but want to know for sure...also, are they any better (experience only please) then the famous koni/gc setup?

 

Not sure about your fitment question but I would call the manufacture (Tein) direct that way you get a solid answer.

Tein Basic coilovers are just that, very basic...the are height adjustable only. If you are just looking to lower the car and want to set height where ever you like then Tein Basic are great for you. If not then I would say save your money up for a better model Tein like the Flex or some other reputable manufacture. Good thing if you do go with Tein Basic over other coilovers in its price range is that Tein is a reputable company with good customer service and has a full service facility in So Cal.

Seems as though you can't go wrong with KONI+GC setup though, hear nothing but great things over and over.
