Tein HE coilovers?
Ok I have a question from the people that have these on there FC.
Ok I already have the Tein FLEXs on my 2000 Impreza RS and now I'm planning on upgrade the RX-7s suspension. I have drove my friends S13 Sil-Eighty(converted, completly) with the Tein HEs and I love how his car handles with them.
So I'm about ready to put the money out for them but was wonderign what some of you all think about them?
Also can you tell me how much you paid for them and where you got them, trying to get the cheapest price, so far i can get them for $1400 shipped from the place i got my Flexs for the Subaru.

from what ive heard, as much as they are made for drifting, most people that drift do not recommend them due to there small piston sizes. They also seem to leak after a while because of their small size. and i know people that have bent the shafts as well. I looked into getting them but changed my mind into getting JIC's because of their beefier profile and they are double-hieght adjustable. Ive also heard that silkroads are a very good setup and they are very beefy as well.

IMO, for the price and remember I am represent a totally more expensive kind of product, I would go for one of two options.
GP Sports
SilkRoad
Period. hehe. I have used both these suspensions and are great. Also great value. I have collected some good data on them so feel free to email me. I don't mind. Of course I would recommend the best most servicable out of the box coilover, Zeal. hehe. This is what I have. I have many friends with GP and Silks. I can get these from Japan for cheaper than HE i think.
Is HE twin tube? GP and Silk are mono.
