Im straight I need the dampening TEIN Basics are to basic

Indeed. Probably wont be a while till I swap mine out for something else. Gotta get something else first. I'm not going to attempt to go a day without coilovers. No 4x4'ing it for me.

 

Car rides great. Definitely handles better and is stiffer than my Eibach/Tokico setup but not bouncy. Car is more responsive (nimble) now, feels awesome in the turns. I can take turns much faster than before, car feels totally in control. I'm only running it on 20 clicks (with 30 being full soft) right now, so its pretty soft. Can't wait to stiffen it up a bit more.

Family rode in the car and I didn't get any comments from the wife, other than, "you are making your car so I can't drive it now because its so low!" She's never driven my car anyway so she isn't going to start now.

 

tein basics are TOO basic. No adjustment and can't go so low.
I was gonna get those, but woot for BC. It was either BC or Stance.

30 clicks? not 32?

 

You can get pretty low with Basics...



Still got room to spare. The drop was when I had 20's on. I just put on OEM 19's and gonna drop it some more, hopefully another .5", but I'd like to go another 1" without rubbing.

 

I don't have basics installed, but Grant said they can only go so low.
He was the one that influenced me to get BC over basics.

Wish I could see a side pic. But it does seem pretyt low, considering the front bumper is higher than the side skirts (you could notice in the pic I posted). Looks funky IMO and I wish there was something that could be done without having to buy an aftermarket bumper.

When I had my 20's I would scrape on some driveways and even some dips. I'll be seeing exactly how much more I can go with the Basics but i plan to upgrade. For now they do the job, much better than a springs setup.

 

Of course, Basics are way better than any...... spring/shock combo.

 

car looks tight with the new suspension...i've been itching on a new suspension setup too...

 

Lol. I wish I would have done more research. I bought the Basics because of the Tein name and I was very new to the G community. For the price, it's worth it. But I would recommend another route if someone is wanting adjustability. I wish I could make them super stiff, I just love the stiff ride.....wait, that doesn't sound right, haha.

 

Manual states 30 and 32 (strange), but I think its 32.

 

The manual is kinda weaksauce. I got the rears installed wrong the first time from the shop. The adjustment was on the bottom and the springs were on the top (thats how the first version of BC were). It's actually the other way around now.

 

That's the INCORRECT way


That's the CORRECT way

It seems a lot of people did a wrong installation including the shop I took it too.

 

I've been shown the light and will be getting some BC coilovers hopefully within the next month

 

make sure you listen to g35papa about the spc arms car looks amazing bro
