i did a search and didnt come up with anything viable. Does anyone know how the Tein SS coilovers ride? how much did you pay for them does anyone know the cheapest place to get them? are they one of those "queen carpet" coilovers? my intentions are street/daily driver use and i just want the handling to be more improved than springs and shocks.

yes, they should be very soft as they really are "carpet queen" coilovers. Should be great as long as you never autox or track drive the car...

They are the replacement for the HA IIRC.

I don't think so...I think they are treated for rust and have/don't have a helper spring...I can't remember. A letter to Tein is in order I think.:)

The Tein HA's were 6 kgf/mm front and 5 kgf/mm rear. The SS are 6 kgf/mm all around.

I'm not quite sure where they fit in to Tein's increasingly confusing product lineup.
