Installed tein street basis on my sister celica(stock height) because it's much cheaper then buying a stock (4)shocks, 2yrs later the ride still feels comfortable 👍🏽
Just wanted to add that when using the Flex A/Z , you can also use the Tein EDFC system . I run the Flex series on my TSX and I highly recommend the EDFC for ease of adjustability with dampening
3:10 this is a touchdown without oscillation. Myself using streetflex'es on my accord, and they behave perfectly, have them almost 7 years on car. Respect to TEIN!
I have Tein Street Basis Z coilovers on my 2010 Subaru Impreza. I installed them with a friend about two years ago from this moment. They still perform super well for only taking $430 out of my wallet. They aren't rusty, don't ride any differently than when first installed and they're actually really tolerable. They will wake your car up and feel planted. Another huge plus, they're actually comfortable enough non car people don't have an issue riding along in the car. Only downside is I didn't buy the Teins that have adjustable top hats for camber. Great product, probably the BEST modification I've done yet.
How has it been with using the oem tophats? That's the only thing kinda putting me off about tein's entry level coilovers. With my car being FWD, I was thinking of going with some CC bolts up front and camber arms in the rear. If not, godspeed's mono rs/ss have my interest that include adjustable tophats, but those are a mono tube design and I'm not sure of their quality. Any advice? Was getting ur camber within reason easy?
Matthew McLean The tophats were too big of a deal. Just be safe when removing them from your OEM struts. As for camber, I bought camber bolts for up front and am on the way to buying rear lower control arms. I've been in a Subaru Outback with godspeed coilovers and the ride was honestly too stiff for daily driving. It was most likely how he had it set up but personally, our opinion was Tein > GodSpeed. Tein just felt more perfected out of the box.
You should do a comparison between the most affordable suspension and their reputation/reliability/long-term quality. And the ones that offer value for the money.
Hell yeah! That is awesome to hear you found our video helpful! We would love to see some pictures of your ride on those coilovers sometime! bit.ly/2obqAZQ
I just bought tein flex Z for my 99 honda prelude first time havent put it in yet but soon,10 years ago I ran tein super street on same car and they work perfect but they no long sell super street,I heard to made it into tein flex z so that's why I went with the tein flex Z plus DEFC
@@maxxas5067 I've seen a lot of people run racelands and getting rid of them after a year because they blown up. The fact that lots of people use something, doesn't make that thing any good.
This is partly why FI is so good "Hey this thing on my car is a bit of a right pickle to figure out, why not make a video of it" Helping people out instead of going how dare you pollute with your cars even tho we sell car stuff like Gillette would 😂😂
I'm currently rocking a set of Tein S Tech Lowering Springs, on my 2010 Corolla, but I'm switching to BC Racing Coilovers Extreme drop, when winter is finally over, because my OEM Struts are bad right now, and I don't want to replace them. I rather get Coilovers and be lower to the ground plus I can adjust the Ride height down to a 2.8 inch 1/2 Drop at the Front and a 2.5 inch 1/2 Drop at the Rear
alan connelly Basically just now I hit some snow that was plowed at the side of the road and it started making a loud noise I thought I broke something but I pulled over got out to check and seen snow between my wheel well and tire
I've been waiting for so long to hear someone describe a set of coilovers the way you described the Flex A, thank you lol I know what set I'm getting B)
been pleasantly surprised by all tein products. the cheap tein street basis for 350z are comfortable and plenty firm for street. Really love the setup. You must stay within the recommended ride height as described in the instructions.
I know you guys focus mostly on coilovers, but what about their spring line? Lots of folks don't know what S. Tech and H. Tech mean and the difference.
Tell us about all of the sets! I am loving it! What's best for hauling lots of gear and big hits on gravel roads. Trying to build several rally style toyota cars right now that extra spare tires and tools are hauled with.

I have a 2015 Chrysler 300S. I'm debating whether I should get coilovers or just replace the entire suspension with the Eibach Sport System. I'm not gonna track a 300. I just want to lower it without messing up the ride. Opinions?
@@renameduser5279 I haven't changed it yet. I have the Eibach Springs sitting in my closet. I just got my new wheels and tires in last week and I haven't even put those on yet. I think I'm just gonna slap the springs, wheels and tires on all at the same time. Then I gotta get an alignment again. I'll see how the springs look and feel if I don't like them I'm gonna get either the Eibach Sportline System or a set of coilovers.
Those would be BC Forged wheels check out the rides complete specs here! www.fitmentindustries.com/wheel-offset-gallery/432841/2012-lamborghini-aventador-bc-forged-hc053s-stock-stock
Yeah! Godspeed or raceland! Why are raceland’s so cheap? Are they made with cheap parts? Are they worth it for the most expensive pair (which I think is $600) please make a video or let me know what you know. Please and thank you!
Syawal my dad had edfc on his 05 legacy wagon. It was great! He would always adjust suspension (stiffened) when going high speed or going through turns and would make suspension soft for regular drive.
For my daily driver obviously I want it to be comfortable but I do plan on lowering a little and driving hard sometimes. Should I go with the flex A or flex Z? I have to drive on some bad roads too, I don't want to bounce all over rhe place.
Hussam Mustafa to be completely honest idk cause I was going to buy from them but a local offer came up for some so I didn’t end up buying from them lol
@@AlmightyyKevv I just dont know how I feel about putting $450 coilovers on a newer car, i owned an 02 jetta before this and kinda wanna keep it nice you know?
Flex a sound great but are they ok for track ? I dont track a lot but would like to have to option. Dont want to get for look abd confort if their gonna break on the track day.
Looking for reviews on their pricier products, circuit master super racing for example. Would suck if I dump $3K on a coilover and some sub $2K coilover outperforms.
I've just read that you should not adjust Tein Flexs softer than the middle adjustment (8 of 16 clicks for example), or it would cause damage to the coilovers. Can you confirm such statement?
I run the Flex A with edfc. Running all those wires was a pain in the ass. But the end product is so amazing. Adjusting the damping on the fly between smooth and bumpy roads with the 10 different damping pre setups is just so convenient.
I have the edfc active pro. It wasnt hard to install at all. i also opted in for the gps setup. mine system adjusts itself depending on speed and g rating. freaking amazing
Guilty. I inquired about tein before you guys offered them. Order online got not exactly what I wanted but I'm cool with the ride just not low enough in rear
There sufficient for now. Almost have suspension dialed in. Solid control, camber, toe arms around. I'll probably swap when I get past other upgrades so I'm not going back and never forward
Can you tell me if there are any interchangeable springs for the Adv. Z for the Altezza? The springs are the same as the ones from the Basis Z and are soft as f**k and though the 16 step damping of the dampers works quite well the kit is still TOO SOFT. Unfortunately my supplier/seller is a useless and unreliable guy and doesn't give me any support in that case :( I also installed front and rear strut bars but while cornering simple on the road the car is still swaying like a 20 year old sofa :( I guess the springs from the Flex Z kit have different diameter and I'm not sure if any springs from an Aristo kit would fit or make any difference. So I'm desperately looking for help!
this is a very informative vid, sorry I did not see this before I bought the enduro pro plus for my wrx sti, now I think they are mashed up just over 2 years of being in use😞😞
This video was EXACTLY what I needed to understand the Tein lineup. Thank you!!
Installed tein street basis on my sister celica(stock height) because it's much cheaper then buying a stock (4)shocks,
2yrs later the ride still feels comfortable 👍🏽
That's why I'm hesitating,
I don't want comfortable ride, I want it to be quite stiff. Are the basis Z stiff?
@@mohammedsalimahmed5230 new basis z have a stiffer spring rate because there were come complaints about them being too soft
Nicolas Esatto You think they would be a good choice got someone who just wants a pretty smooth ride with no drop for my daily? G37s coupe here
Hope is the ride bro? Thinking about getting some for my G37s
Young Jay the ride is pretty comfortable while still providing a differing more responsive feel with a noticeable improvement in handling.
With so many z’s im surprised this isnt a dragon ball spin off
Jordan Newa tein spring z
Why does that work lol
i keep calling it Tien too to make it even better
Can we please see more vidoes like this, but for other branded coil over packages? Keep up the good work!
Lol I just installed race land 😂😂😂
Dovah Kiin how did those work out for you? I was thinking about purchasing but heard mixed/bad reviews
Just wanted to add that when using the Flex A/Z , you can also use the Tein EDFC system . I run the Flex series on my TSX and I highly recommend the EDFC for ease of adjustability with dampening
Hey i just recently bought a 1st gen TSX and this is going to be my first mod could we get in contact I have a few questions
What dat

Ashish Patel don't hold your breath. But I agree. Would be a good review .
I have the Flex A and they are amazing!
What’s your review after 3 years?
thank you been trying to work out how my street advances stacked up
Awesome video. Helped me decide what coilovers to go with. I knew I wanted Tein just not which ones. Thanks for clarifying the differences,
Hell yeah! That is awesome to hear you found our video helpful! We would love to see some pictures of your ride on those coilovers sometime! bit.ly/2obqAZQ
Can you do this with BC Coilovers also for the different series?
BC Racing literally has a video they released on the differences.... lol
Lot's of IS300 owners run Yonaka coilovers. Y'all should do a vid on that.
Thank you guys for pronouncing Tein properly, seriously, I hate people who say TEEEE-IN
We have learned the hard way how to pronounce a lot of these companies! 😂 😅
Matt Horakova I only think of dragonball when tein comes up.
The Testing Tein puts there products thru is insane...well made product at any entry level.. 1 1 1/2 yrs in on mine, still running smooth
I have tein lowering springs on my 2016 Yaris. Love em.
Watched this after ordering my Tein Flex As and am so glad I got those ones. I want nice coils with stock comfort, perfect choice I guess.
Wow thank You very much for the diff between the types of coilovers tein offers . Was wondering about top mounts and such now I know thanks!
Running tein street basis on my g35 coupe, super good if your not tryna go super slammed and not tracking

Definitely explain the higher performance and more expensive parts of their line up too! Especially with godspeed if you do them
the more expensive are only for racing...................the flex z is the most popular option there for street use...
