Under 2k and still within my price range so a definite option. I see their product description puts a big emphasis on Australian conditions and street use, so I'm assuming they're a lot more comfortable for the road?

Fulcrum who is the Oz distributor for teins, change the spring rates to suit the bum pity bump condition our tax paid roads for the tein super streets
Fulcrum is also where you would get your tein coilovers serviced if you need to

Hsd's were good for the money but the teins just seem to do everything a little better.

JR ...

Also keep in mind that Tein SuperStreets have been replaced by the Street Advance which has different parts and looks different too, and is better according to Tein (like SS improved version 2).

So if you're buying the SS from fulcrum or anywhere you're buying older tech, if you get the Street Advance its the latest and greatest...

I'd be buying the Street Advance if I was you

Another cool feature with the teins is the in cab control unit you can purchase. You can adjust the damping from front and rear seperatly with out having to get out of the car. Tbh though, once i found the sweet spot i havnt touched it since, just makes finding the sweet spot so much easier.

Cool, but just a wank feature

Duke, how do you get to your rear adjustment clicker without removing the back seat?
Tony adjusts rear damper easier with the unit I guess

Should be able to buy an extension bar for the adjustment knob. It will sit just below the headrest on the rear seats..

using the Perth-WRX mobile app
