Tein coming out with a new coil-over?
im looking at the eibachs. what do you think of those? i hear they're comparable to stillen but just have new bushings.
btw, its funny how some people hate their t1-r's while others like me like them. just thought id mention that.

U forgot to mention your heavy foot. Wes got the same tires as u and he didn't mention any understeer problems or he just kept that to himself.

so if i was understeering i had to slow down thus making wes slow down enough to where he wouldnt understeer.
i can also get these tires to spin on the street with little effort

Several of you mentioned an interest in sway bars. There's a good thread in the Suspension section (it's a sticky).

I also found an article on suspension that seemed accurate and had a lot of good information in it. The main part of the article is on front wheel drive cars, but most of the information applies to rear wheel drive cars too.
If you don't want to read the whole article, just skip down to the table titled "Suspension Adjustment." It has some good information on how different suspension adjustments (like springs and sway bars) affect vehicle stability.

back on the topic of the thread, yes, Tein is releasing a new coilover, the Monoflex. it's supposed to have all the features of the existing Flex but with a monotube design and will be geared to the street or basic competition. release is in july according to Tein.
Thanks for the input ill have to take it out and look at it..
And.. they've also released the Tein Comfort Sport which is also a monotube design... rides like stock I love it..(other than the rattel) not to harsh.. great for daily driving.. ive owned the Flex and it was a bit much even w/ the EDFC..

I am most interested in the Basics, possibly the Flex, but not the CS. And I don't think I'm interested in the EDFC tuning. I would like to know for sure if the Basics are linear or progressive. I've heard people say either way, but the Tein site doesn't say.
You are the only person I know that has Tein Basics. Are you still happy with them?
