Which would be the best buy for the money?
TEIN: $ 1012 shipped K-Sports: $ 1140 shipped
I know there's bad reviews about K-Sports but I think the GT Pro Dampers are better quality than the Kontrol Pro,
Does anybody have the GT's on the toaster?

Ksport only offers the Kontrol Pro for the 2nd Gen's (which are not called toasters).

I think there is a high chance that the GT Pro IS offered for our cars...I've seen both the Kontrol and GT Pro for sale on various sites, but that is one of them. It's not like it's much different anyway, I think I asked a KSport representative awhile back what the difference is. The spring rates are the same, but one just uses the inverted monotube design.

yea i also have seen both types of Ksports on different sites for sale.

 

I guess it's just best to ask them to make sure.

 

How adjustable are the tiens? Are they fully 32 way adjustable?

 

No, Teins are no dampening adjustable, just basic, K-sports GT Pro are 36 way adjustable, while the Kontrol Pro are 32 way adjustable; GT's monotube is inverted in addition, K-sport website says, gas and oil are separated which makes it more "durable"?? coilovers gurus anywhere??

 

The GT Pro was available for the 2nd gen xB. I think that it why the site still has it up.

As stated before the Tein Basic is basic

Steel main tube
Adjustable ride height
1 year warranty.

ksport kontrol pro

Aluminum main tube
adjustable ride height
adjustable firmness(damper) of suspension
adjustable camber
1 year warranty

It is difficult to compare the GT Pro and basic. A better comparison would be the SSP and GT Pro or kontrol pro. The inverted tube helps move the shock tube further away from the hot braking system which theoretically gives you more consistent rebound and compression.
