TEIN Street Basis

[normmynorm]

Just had the TEIN Street Basis installed today. My boy did it at his garage. I assisted haha. That's his RX-7 in the last photo. It's nice.

Definitely way more responsive. Handles really nice. No rough ride at all, really smooth. Makes the 18's look pretty small now tho.

Looks good! Is the height adjustable? If the ride was smooth id go a little lower overall. Looks good as is though.

[normmynorm]

Thanks! Appreciate it.

It is adjustable. It's set to the lowest, unless I take out one of the plates and could prob go lower. Max ride height is supposed to be 1.8 in the back and 2.1 in the front.

Never ridden lowered, so gettin used to it. The speed bump in my development is a little tall, so it's already a little struggle with that. Most speed bumps around here aren't that bad, but of course the one at my house has to be haha.

Just adding another picture while I had my rear wheel off. Had the rear fenders rolled today.

How has the new Tein setup been so far? Have you experiened any suspension noise?

[normmynorm]

Nice dude looks good

Thanks bro. Lookin at some new wheels now. Thinkin about 19x9.5.

Good question. So far so good. No abnormal noise or anything thus far. Only thing I've noticed is that if the road is really bumpy, you feel every single bounce

Need to get alignment done soon here, but was looking at upgrading the wheels.

Yeah, think I just want to give it a different look. Needs some color or something.

I have started to notice some suspension noise. Usually when it's been sitting for a while, particularly on an angle. Goes away after you ride for a while.

[JerseyBoy201]

my opinion dude my color car and yours are kinda dark so black rims looks nice but after awhile it looks ugly theres no pop its just blah dark lol, thats why i took the black plasti dip off my stock wheels and now i love it the car looks so much nicer and look alot cleaner black rims looks alot better with white or silver cars, you should try and sell them and get hypersilver xxrs thats what i what but the only thing is i wish they came in size 19in i checked everywhere for 19in wheels and that are the style like xxr 521 and like the BBS LM but there so much money and so is every other wheel so that why i think im just gunna stick with the xxr 521 18x8.5 so far i havent found anything cheaper and yo i took off my front lisence plate and plug the hole looks cleaner i posted a thread if you wanna see a picture

[normmynorm]

Yeah, gettin bored with it. Not completely convinced on what I want yet, but yeah gonna do something to change it up.

Sounds good, so your coilovers are maxed out to the lowest ?

[normmynorm]

Sounds good, so your coilovers are maxed out to the lowest ?

Yup, maxed out. Unless you take off one of the lowering plates. I think people do that to get more drop. My tires are 245, so I could get smaller tires and get lower too.

[JerseyBoy201]

How many inches is rear and front and would that effect the coilovers taking a lowing plate off? Im asking cause evenually im looking to get coilovers and wondering whats the lowest drop
