If you want some real Kei Office stuff, talk to Drift Factory, I think I remember something about them getting a container of stuff soon. I may be wrong though.

I'm not familiar w/ kei office models,besides ithe fact that i know that if you get a set for the s13, it does not understeer anymore and you will become a pro drifter ;]

what's wrong w/ the tein basic? I may pick up a setof those or a setof tanabe s-0c type IIs...

just wanna tip off for those who are looking for a set i gues?

tein basic...is just a "basic" coilover setup. Height adjustability...thats it.

THe kei office that they're selling has been re-welded. Also will charge you 200 for shipping so the total cost will be around 900. If you mess up the coilovers, it'll be hard for you to fix it or get a replacement. Might as well save up a little bit more and get SPL's coilovers for 1040shipped w/ pillow mounts and 15way adjustable...

just an examlple

That is a normal going price for TD-II's... same with their S13 KO XR model auction.

I went through this whole debate a while ago when I bought my XT's (next level above XR's) 2 months ago.

I wouldn't bother with the TD's since you can get a similar if not better suspension (roughly the same quality but more function) out of FLT-A2's or Tein HE's for a price that is almost the same price if not less in the case of the HE's.

XR's are worth what they are selling them for... but FLT-A2's would contest them I would imagine for a lower price.

I went with XT's b/c they are rare and top of the line Kei Office (originally ordered XT-alphas... but that's a long messy story) with good spring rates/specs for what I'm using the car for...

Hope this helps!

You are right we are going to carry over 3/4 of the Kei Office line IN STOCK. As far as comparing K office to Tein all I'll say is that K Office won't rust away. :pface Really though we have been waiting to get coilovers since the company started and the reason for this is that we were waiting to get things moving with K office. The quality of these coilovers is incredible. They are the best that there is and the reality is that price wise they can compete with any other manufacturer out there. Plus with the investment that we have made to carry them in stock you will get them as quickly or more quickly than other brands.

Will you carry the helper springs for the XT's (to make them XT-alphas)? I bought and installed my XT's which took 2.5 months to get from company-X let's call them... which were suppose to be XT-alphas since the order was wrong... and would rather not have to deal with them again. I got a refund and free shipping... but that is beside the point. Let me know...

I will not have them in with this run. However, Kei Office is opening an office here so there is a good chance that by october I can send them to that office for modification and you should have them back in a few weeks.
