ooo...im interested in the H&R too!!

 

just filed taxes yesterday. and get paid today with my bonus check included. my tanabes should be here in a few weeks. assuming my e-file goes through and the return comes back fairly quick. ill let everyone know about it when the time comes.

 

Please keep us udated. I was planning to get the tein basic. I think i should hold off on that until these reviews are up. My buddy drives a M3 with H&R springs and the ride is superb.

 

my progress coilovers should be in this week and will get installed this saturday along with greddy strut bars (front/rear) and my progress rear sway bar - suspension will be tight as a virgin

 

dont mistake tanabes to be better overall over teins. Teins are much harsher but handle much better. Tanabes are softer and also I beleive have progressive springs further increasing body roll. Whats too stiff and whats to omuch handling is up to you.

 

i have the tein's ssp and edfc my car is a daily driver my wife drive's it also it's not to harsh for her and she like's the handling compared to her car. so basicaly it come's down to your comfort level .

 

what are these helper spring that were mentioned?

 

easiest way to describe them. they are little tiny springs above the main springs. they help to preload the large coil. so that when you do hit a bump. the main coil doesnt rebound AS much.

thats my understanding of them. basically. they allow for a smoother ride because of the preload they have.

im installing my tanabes tomorrow. ill take pictures of everything. and post up a new thread with all the info.

 

^^^ Do they come pre-assembled and include the upper mounts?

 

i may need to see the pics to 100% understand that. but thanks for the explanation

 

no upper mounts. you have to reuse the stock ones

 

they are installed. pictures. and my review after tomorrow.

i love metallic purple and anodized red ;)

 

any reviews yet or pics?

 

yeah...
