I have just been looking on e-bay and good god the price of it!!!! nearly £700 for some tein coilovers!!! why have they nearly doubled in price over the last couple of years??

I dont know if i could justify spending that sort of money on them Sad

i'm just wondering if there is any point now..... i dont really like buyinf 2nd hand suspension as it rarely lasts very long and ends up false economy..
Will decide if i start doing track days next year..

If you fancy Tokico Illumina in some time we can arrange group buy from States.

You can get them springs/shocks for £300+.

I agree with you in regards to the price of Teins, I think they are not as good as Billstein and they have higher price...

My current set is TEIN type HA (old stuff) same problem like everyone top alluminium mounts are fu.ked.

Anyone intrested?

I paid around £900 for my tein super streets with top mounts (about 1 and a half years ago now)
