Thank you for the wonderful feedback. Appreciate it very much. We are doing our best to create effective/helpful DIY video guide. Audio and voice over may be not the best but slowly learning to improve.
This video walk-through is invaluable in helping me step-by-step install my Tein coil overs on my 2020 BRZ thank you so much for your dedication to the craft of automotive mechanics and to your fans.
Glad it helped! And good Job for doing it on your own. We just want to show the details and every step so people can find a full DIY video of this platform. Appreciate the love!
Looking forward to installing my sensational KW V3 " Clubsports " Coilovers on my 2023 Subaru BRZ { with Aluminium knuckles unlike the GR86 } in early May when the car is delivered . Thanks for the sensational Video. Well done !
Tein seems to have lost some of its popularity in USA. I’m guessing it happened when they started manufacturing their low end kits in places other than Japan. I have a new Z and am in the market for some coilovers. I’m curious what you would say when comparing High end tein to Aragosta or Ohlins? HKS? Thanks !
I've tried driving one of my friend's ohlins. One of the best drives. I haven't tried other high-end coilovers so I can't give you comparison insights.
Hi, thanks for the positive feedback! For your question tho, you have to more specific on which model of BC Racing your talking about. TEIN also has a wide range of Coilovers. So it&s kind of hard to tell which is better. TEIN is has been in the coilover industry for so long, but that doesn't mean it's better than BC Racing. If your spending the same amount, I found this comparison video on TEIN Mono Sport vs. BC ER Coilovers from "Drive Tune Media" th-cam.com/video/qsbdNy8XWkM/w-d-xo.html
might I suggest a HF breaker bar and 1 wheel socket to remove the lug nuts easier (less dangerous than the 4-way wrench) __ I know Tein is supposed to be a good brand for suspension, but I never hear great things about their stuff. Is their top tier race stuff good and their street stuff meh. Or is it ppl not knowing the right Tein product for their car or misunderstanding what the capabilities/limitations of the Tein product they installed/chose? I personally see them as bottom tier suspension bits...am I wrong?
Yeah, I see a lot of guys get the bottom tier street coils and use them on track. they cheap out and complain. TEIN has been out there for so long, they got the right one for your preference. 👍
Sup guys. Where do i find the foot pound torque because i can’t understand the measurement you using in this video, Im a newbie using torque wrench. Thanks
@@rohandias1244 Nuts or bolts that fasten a bushing in a suspension. If you tighten them with the wheels in the air, when the car will go to the ground, the bushing would have a preload on them. If you torque them when the car is on the ground, the bushing would be in the right position for driving, without any preload, so less stress on them.
It’s only surface rust. It will be cleared after a drive. Brake rotor rust can be worse depending on the climate. I still can’t find a way to prevent it from rusting.
For the street it can be ggod with just the coils. But I suggest you replace sabilizer links (swaybar link) as well when you drop the car. Some brands comes with the coils, but mostly don't. I got myself front and rear coz I track the car.
You need to use something to counter the counter-clockwise turn of the lower mount lock (bottom ring). So use a wrench or any bar to make sure the lower mount stays and not turn together with the bottom ring.
Hi, this is the “Mono Racing Damper SpecR”.. In short.. Flex z and Street are both Twin tube, while this one is a Single/Mono tube. Twin tube are designed to be comfortable on a daily drive. Mono tube ones are usually designed for the track.
Everyone has their own opinioin. But if you really want TEINs, I can suggest you Flex-Z if your mostly gonna ride on the streets or a daily. There are a lot of coilovers out there, so it's really hard to pick one.
Hey! Thanks for all the great content on the GR86. I am curious to know what the 86 community in Japan thinks about the oil starvation issue? Is it a big concern there? Are you noticing many failures on track? 900BRZ's overview / analysis of the issue (note the KB baffle did not address the issue) th-cam.com/video/4Jk5WTWoqt4/w-d-xo.html Thanks!
@@39gjapan Great idea! Would be interesting to know the differences in their setup and if anyone is actually measuring oil pressure (similar track&build / 900BRZ)

Very good video, many DIY videos skips a lot of the steps you show.
@@SuperKOG01 thanks, appreciate it
This one definitely needs way more views. The angles provided and straight forward instructions are great!
Thank you. Appreciate it alot. This is very touching.
I have tein flex A’s that have just been sitting for almost half a year this video made me ready to try and installing them myself this week 😂
Cool! You’ll do just fine. Safety first! 😊👍

Awesome video!!! my confidence in accomplishing this task myself has shot up

Thank you for subscribing.
KW is one of the best! Good luck on your installation.
Nice install and great information but I did ask my grandma to loosen the wheel lugs for me.
Thanks. Having an extra hand is way better.
Just showing how to do it alone.
Just a suggestion use a 6 point wrench and sockets on torqued nuts less likely to strip or roll the points. Great video!
Thanks for the Tip, but am still kind of limited on my hand tools. gonna have to buy more soon.
Nice skills bro
Thanks ✌
5 months into ownership of the super cool Tein Mono Racing. Has it been good so far?
Absolutely loving it. Loving the handling on the corners even more.
@@39gjapan fantastic!! I’m likely buying a set next month
Great video, not hard at all. 👍🏻

Hey bro. Quick question is Tein Flex Z is good too?
Tein Flex Z is good specially made for the streets. But dont expect it to be that good for the track. 👍
What’s the difference between theses and bc? Awesome video by the way!

Nice clean work. I would be better to torque the nuts when the car is on the ground. The bushings would have longer life.
Thanks. And your right. So actually retorqued them. Just couldn’t find a way to edit an uploaded video. 😅
Sup guys. Where do i find the foot pound torque because i can’t understand the measurement you using in this video, Im a newbie using torque wrench. Thanks
Hi, torque specs are usually written on coilovers manual. But you can also use a converter online N.m to lbf
grateful if you could explain this comment further (for a beginner) - which are the nuts that should be torqued once the car is on the ground?

And last question sir i just got my gr86 last 2 month but my disc brake looks rusty. Do you have any idea what to do?
It’s only surface rust. It will be cleared after a drive. Brake rotor rust can be worse depending on the climate.
I still can’t find a way to prevent it from rusting.
did you need anything other than just the coilovers?
For the street it can be ggod with just the coils. But I suggest you replace sabilizer links (swaybar link) as well when you drop the car. Some brands comes with the coils, but mostly don't. I got myself front and rear coz I track the car.
I have the Tein flex z's I could not get the lock to unlock lol so I just left it..
Hi, what lock are we talking about?
@@39gjapan the bottom ring so you can lower it more
You need to use something to counter the counter-clockwise turn of the lower mount lock (bottom ring). So use a wrench or any bar to make sure the lower mount stays and not turn together with the bottom ring.
What spring rate are you running for this setup. How the feeling on the street driving. Its to hard or just good
Front: 8kg/mm
Rear: 10kg/mm
It is kinda hard for the street even at full soft setting. But it feels great on track.
Hi! Is that a tein flex z? Whats the difference with tein street? Im planning to get one tho. Thanks in advance
Hi, this is the “Mono Racing Damper SpecR”..
In short..
Flex z and Street are both Twin tube, while this one is a Single/Mono tube.
Twin tube are designed to be comfortable on a daily drive.
Mono tube ones are usually designed for the track.
@@39gjapan Thank you so much. So should i get tein flex z? Sorry im just a newbie.

There are a lot of coilovers out there, so it's really hard to pick one.
@@39gjapan Thats true. I want something trusty brand and doesnt break the bank.
@@ClaireMarjorieChua If ypu really want to go with a Japanese Brand, Flex-Z is good. A lot of people runs them and they’re great.
