Well I installed my Tein flex...
well I installed my Tein yesterday and the setting are as per the instruction. I really think the car needs to come up. It doesn't even have the tranny installed.

I think it looks quite nice actually. Maybe a little bit bigger wheels later on down (by bigger i mean 17's), to give it a little bit more filler under those wheel wells. To me, the stockers just seem too small when the rexx is lowered.
Even if you don't tho, I think it looks great man, good job!

well I got the tranny back on and I was able to ride the car. At the softes setting, the car rides like a Cadillac. I love the ride. I will recommend this suspension to anyone. I raised the car a bit but still needs to come up now with me sitting in it and the tranny with a full tank of gas went down to were the picture are but no rubbing.

i've been thinking about either those or the RA... i just don't know if the RA will actually make the car handle better...it's going to be a street car with some occasional track use.
are the ra's higher quality, or do they just have more points of adjustment? i want the best thing i can get, but don't want to pay for features i'll never use.

Looks great. Did you measure the height? I believe you measure from the fender to the center of the wheel. I've read what others were running for a height but i dont remember search you could find some helpful info..

You don't want to go very stiff when you will be mainly using street tires. The stiff rates will make the tires slide before the suspension even moves enough to get weight loaded onto that outer tire.
The tein Flex is a wise kit if you will be running your basic high performance street tires... a little bit stiffer would be good for street slicks or full racing slicks (unless you aRE JUST DOING OCCASIONAL AUTO-X AND NO TRACK EVENTS) oops, caps

well i could always get softer springs for the ra's, but are they going to make the car handle better? what about opposed to hks hypermax or whatever...
maybe i'll just keep the car stock for the street and find something that will work well for racing and just bolt them on a couple days out of the year....
