[slyedog240sx]

if by top hats you mean mounts then ?Why even waste money on coils without mounts.Top hats, That is the gayest term for strut mounts i have ever seen.Call tein and price pillowball mounts.

Ok i suppose i could of used one of the many other names they go by but i didnt . Your comment doesnt answer my question . So if your going to have none help-full replys to questions being asked then make your own thread. Thanks ...

Oh and i already went to the tein site its $150 for the fronts and no mention of the rears .

People on the internet are mean, get over it.

Do the coils come with the upper spring perches?

If all you are missing is the mounts, then you should be able to use any commercially available mount designed for your car. That means, factory style or pillow ball with camber plates.

If they dont come with perches, they are not worth buying, unless they are really really cheap.

[Lev_96_240sx]

We'll assume you're lowering the car so you will need camber plates. I would buy the Tein pillow ball mounts because they are a.) good, and b.) come with camber plates. Yes they are not cheap, but this is a suspension we are talking about, if it fails your car will probably end up in a ditch.

Yes they are cheap so if i had to put up another 150 for the pillow mounts its still cheaper then going with a low end coilover . Also i dont know if they come with the top perch i would assume but i did just send him a message . As for the rear could i just use the stock top mount is that what everyone does or do i need to buy a new mount (didnt see it on the tein site) . Thanks for you insite guys its help full .

I've only purchesed one set of coils befor and that was for a civic and they were the H&R cup kit they were screwin great..

your refering to upper pillow ball mounts or the actual hats that hold the spring to the strut? they r two different things, the upper pillow ball mounts arent nessacary , the spring hat things are

[ca18tt1978]

Well damn i'm feel dumb yeah it was the pillow ball mount i was referring to .So now that i know i dont realy need them i'm still going to get some but it will be in time no rush other things to pick up before they go on any way .
