TEIN RA (Installation Pix)
TEIN Type RA has been designed for advanced circuit racing and street use for experienced drivers.
It incorporates a newly designed mono-tube structure, which allows for maximum road handling and driving stability for all type of situations.
This product has been developed from a huge background of TEIN motor sports activities (such as the World Rally Championship,
N1 and endurance racing).
* Mono-tube design for maximum performance.
* Constructed of A7050 aluminum for lightweight (on certain applications).
* Strut type suspension has an inverted steel shock absorber for durability.
* 16 levels of damping force adjustment (compression and rebound together).
* Ride height adjustable.
* Exclusive designed pillow ball upper mount for optimize performance.
* Available for overhaul.
Spring Rates are 10kg/mm front and 8kg/mm rear
Housing are anodized aluminum
Comes with Front Camber/Pillowball Mount and Rear Pillowball Mount
Every damn penny is worth it!
WhoeEver says TEIN is crap, they're just dumb.
and whoever says that these are crazy spring rates must have shitty coilovers.
These are very comfortable, depending on settings.
Amazing ride, great quality, top notch handling (with my current setup). It's like driving another car after swapping around different types of set ups.
Definitely sweet!

Those are some seriously stiff springs, time to put the chiropractor on speed dial. Most racers don't even use springs that stiff, so yes they are overkill, but yes, good dampers makes a difference.

You should ride my car. It's not that stiff. If you put set 'em to be stiff, then they'll be stiff. My KYB AGX were stiffer with the lowering springs.

They are working great. Still going to drive around more and get the feel for adjustments.
My car is a daily driver.
