Welcome to the good life...


;)

 

drop the back to the bottom, even when its on like 2 threads it sits like a finger and a half gap between the tire and rear fender, i have the fronts at no threads either, SLAMMED =P

 

Thanks, I can’t wait to get them on. I am actually looking forward to the installation, it looks to be a blast, in a good way.

What size rims are you running on your Teins?

 

18x8.5

 

I would not adjust your coilovers all the way down unless that is the look you are going for. They were not designed to be used at that ride height w/ the standard rate springs. I have had Teins on three different vehicals now and I have found that there recommended ride height always works the best for performance. My first set I had on my Civic, I adjusted them all the way down with my 18s. It looked real good but performed like crap. I would strongly recommend using the the ride height as stated in the Tein manual. I am in no way telling you what to do I know many people will tell you to "dump" it but I am just giving advice from experience.

Thank you for your input, even if the ride height sites to high. It is not likely I will deviate from the manufactures setup guide for the tC. I will also want the system to have a break in period, slamming would not allow the system to make this transition properly.

After the initial break in period the tC goes for a 4 wheel alignment. Then it goes to the race shop to have the tC put on scales for corner balancing. I’m 6’3” and weight in at 205 lbs, which is some serious driver side weight basis.

 

the higher up the car on these coils, the more preload there is on the spring. find a nice medium, i found the settings it came with were fairly nice, a bit lower will give your spring less load.

 

Update a few pics, this is fun!

 

i see you have the hotchkis swaybars good luck with that. you should probably check for rubbing now & then.

 

just wanted to tell you welcome to the wonderful world of adjustable coilovers man. i have the exact same set up. add a set of front and rear strut tower bars and you will die of happiness.

i have mine fully lowered front and rear. i think it looks incredible and handles just as good as it looks. this might not say alot for others not in my area because on ramps are all different, but i can take an on ramp at 60mph and the tires aren't even barking yet.

enjoy.

 

when i had tein on my 05 corolla i could take on ramps at 70mph in the rain

 

^^not sure if i wanna let my ba!!s hang out that much yet...lol

 

Have the coilovers in and they are great so far, have it set on a light setting for now. Today I was able to get the ride height taken care of that I liked. Now I need to get the EDFC installed and set up. I should have more pics and a right up on it.

 

sweet!! i was wondering about the EDFC controllers and the benefits of these. I am about to order my Tein SS-P's in the next few days or weeks.. Tryin to find the best place to get them... SCO is not that cheap...so i am looking else where, and there is a guy on here that sells them i am chattin with... thanks for the update.

 

i got mine from houseofscion.com

scott i know its a little late to tell ya this now but you should've put the edfc's on before you fully installed the coilovers. the front shouldn't be a big problem but you will have to take out the rear or you wont be able to install the edfc box.

atleast now others will know.

 

I'd like to see some edfc installed pics.

 

same here...

 

It appears from Greddy05tc that the rears will be coming out to install the controllers. I have a macro lenses that will allow me to get some close up pictures. I will shoot a variety of them in and out of the tC and post them when I am done.

 

holy superstreet shiny batman! greatjob so far scottsdale
