stance GR+ is the older models. Rishie @ AutoRnD has the new XR lineup available for FC/FD rx7 with Swift Springs. top of the line model available.
Tein is no where near comparable... even the GR+ coils are amazing. nothing wrong with them, just a little older model. the new XR lineup is DG5 territory at half the price.

both rebuilable in the unit states, both have about the same turn around time on the rebuild. Spring rates are close, tein is 12/10 and stance is 12/12. i was thinking go with what has been proved. Tein i hear ALOT of good stuff about, but on other sites im seeing stance come up quite a bit. Thats whats making me wonder.

You ever decided which one to get? I'm in the same dilemma. Leaning towards the Tein since I had a very good experience with them but would like to see which route you went.

I bought Tein Flex coilovers and ordered a pair of Tein's standard springs (same style as the ones included in the kit) that would give me a preferred spring rate that I chose using Howard Coleman's recommendations. The set of standard springs I bought (P/N SQ060-01175) are 336 lbs/in. So, when I received the Type Flex coilovers, I swapped the 336lbs/in springs I ordered with the rear 448lbs/in springs. I then took off the 559lbs/in springs on the front and replaced them with the 448lbs/in springs that were on the rear. I love them but haven't been on the track yet. I think the ride is quite nice when the damping is set to the softest level.

Reviving a thread here...
The front and rear springs are interchangeable? What this guy did is a good idea...
