Tein s&h Shocks

Hey everyone, Ive been doing a good amount of research lately because im interested in the tein h or s tech shocks for my car.

Im concerned though, i hear and feel that the H techs are barely giving any drop

Now im looking at the s techs and they seem to make the nice drop but I cant seem to distinguish from many pictures if the car will drop too low resulting in the car surpassing part of my wheel..


I am looking for the tein shocks that will give me the best drop so that Ill have the car sit just above my wheels but not surpass them

thanks in advance guys

You could have done a search.............

Well Ok, if you have issues doing a search I'll be glad to answer your questions. Tein 350Z H-Techs will drop your car slightly less than an inch
and give you a good ride when combined with Tokicos DSP-9 shocks.
These are available from everythingg35.com for $685 shipped. The plus is
with this setup you won't need to purchase a-arms or anything else. You
must have your alignment done as with any mod to your suspension...LOL

Sorry, but -

S and H techs are springs, not shocks. If you go with S techs, you will need to get new shocks, as the stock ones will blow within about 6 months or less, due to the drop.

The best solution for cost as well, is a set of thier Basic Coilovers. They are height adjustable so you can get the EXACT height you want.
