Default Updated: Tein HA Kit on CRX. Compare AGX + GC.

Just put in the front Tein HA suspension with the pillow mounts on the rex, and it's feels awesome. I had Grond control on AGX adjustables, and they were cool for the price, however Tein surprised me is hella more comfortable at the same time hugs the road really freaking sweet! I don't even feel the bumps anymore compared to the old setup. The dual helper spring helps out hella and same with the pillow mounts, feels really sweet on the road. Shorter shock length and longer spring, great ride dumped even! I haven't gotten to play with them yet, I gotta change out my rear lower control arm cuz I have an 89 and it's an 88 kit. Can't wait. Sorry for the large size pics.
BTW - I'll be selling the AGX Ground Control Setup for the CRX 89-91. Mines a 89. If it's 88 you'll have to change the rear lower control arms. Any offers?

That doll can go up my but hole, stays inside, can't leave crap in the car, haha. Titanmotorswaps had them in stock. Maybe be able to special order them from Japan or call around to see if shops have them in stock if your lucky.

There Gab sport rims. They can be stiff if I want them to be. 16 way adjustable. I have it on the standard setting, and it feels already better than any agx setting. It's so comfortable, because the helper spring, shorter stroke and it's longer spring size too. The damper rate is awesome, feels stock but dumped. Can't wait to take some real turns with it. Got it from Titanmotorsports for $1100 shipped, thanks titan for the great deal, he posted on here and that's how I found it.

Hey Just some advice for your HA's

The threaded sleeve will rust just from water getting on them so you should antisize your perch rings if you don't want them locking up. If you ever take em out the best thing to do is to paint the sleeve with paint and that will slove any rust issues.

anyways...looks good

I never got a doll


how much are you looking for the kyb...didn't you ever run bumpstops with them...I don't see any in the pic?

Those look great, we were just happy to get them out of our warehouse, they were there for way too long, glad we could help out a fellow honda-tech member...Unfortunately we don't have anymore, but special order on them is always an option if anyone else is interested in getting this setup, please feel free to email me at James@TitanMotorsports.com.

----> about the sleeves...my friend's gti has fk coilover's on them and his setup came with silicon spray if youd like to try something like that instead of paint...just a thought

http://www.Titanmotorsports.com doesn't list any honda stuff on their only Supra parts IS300 parts. Becasue I"m about to get some TEIN SS for my hatch for $850 and I just might wait a little longer and save a little bit more money if I can get the HA for $1100. I about to start autox and solo racing thats why I might just save up for the HA.

The ride is great, couldn't ask for more. I didn't get the back in yet since I gotta change the rear lower control arms. But just the fronts in, it's pretty smooth and comfortabnle. Unfortunately you can't slam them as low. Like right now I have 15" with 50 series and it's pretty sitting pretty low on the threads, and I still have a finger or less gap. But the dual helper spring helps out a lot! THere's always constant pressure when your adjusting it. I'm glad I got the HA's and not the SS's. I wouldn't get anything less than the HA kit. The pillowball mounts are great too, great control on the road. One thing I found out, some of the Tein kits the more expensive ones come with RUST SPRAY in it's own Tein bottle. I borrowed some from my friend.

I have these shocks with the pillow ***** and blah blah.

So I noticed that too that you are at the end of the threads as far as lowering it more...You can take out the tender spring as you dont need it and run just the main spring that will fix your lowering it more problem.I run it without the tender spring as having coiovers that you can't adjust doesn't make too much sense.
