Look nice. Interesting to see you guys bid not knowing the spring rates and shock valve rates. In Japan the roads are perfect so they ramp up the spring/shock rates to some high amount.

Friend got a set of Tiens for his 240sx. Springs and shocks are stiff as holy hell

just got a response from the guy...he doesn't know about any of the information but it does have a 24 damper setting. he only has two sets (one for a 2000-2002 and one for a 1995-1999) ....but arent they the same thing? someone pls verify this for me.

he cant do a GD...he only has two and bought them from japan through business closing auctions..
im willing to take a shot at em...i'm on 100% stock suspension right now so i can give my best before/after thoughts
kloogy...if u wanted them, i dont want to undermine you, but id really like em

responses would be appreciated...thanks

If/when you win, post up info on the company that makes them (hopefully they come with some type of documentation: instructions, warranty card, company contact info, etc). Maybe we'll have a new cheap coilover alternative... Although he probably got them cheap because of the auction, they probably are expensive normally. Thanks for taking the risk BTW

He told me all the same stuff as you.

So NO GD opportunity. He knows nothing about the company, so I'd be worried about that. He also told me there is no warranty on these, other than the fact that they will fit the car as stated.

I'll back off. I was going to bid if nobody else wanted to be the guinea pig.

I just hope nobody from outside of this forum wins the auction.

ask cattman about the fitment issue. supposedly they will not with out some modification but if the other shocks are up to 4 hundred then getting the 99's for 300 and putting in $50 worth of work maybe worth it.

Looking at the 00-02 coilovers, it still looks like you need those top brackets. I emailed the guy and he said it was all complete no other parts needed, but I'm not sure. Also the coil diameter his a whole lot smaller than the stock, I'm not sure if that matters on coilovers or not. One positive is that he said they can be revalved in case the strut wears out. I still think it's wierd that you can't find any info on the net about this company. If they were that good and sold that many you would think they would have a web site. I guess who ever buys them is taking a $500 chance.

Hey guys, correct me if I'm wrong but JIC are around 1500$ if not more and they worth every penny of it, so let say if you pay 500$ for these beauty, man it's less than half the price, the product look really well machined, big deal, big time, it shouldn't be such a big deal to install. You have a unique product and unique set-up that only 2 persons have in the USA. Enjoy it and bring this project it's destiny, just slap them on and post your comments and everything
here.

Cheers

Thanks for the comments i'm feeling alot better. So I take it no one has ever heard of this company

P.S. I agree about them looking well machined. In my opinion they look to be quite similar to the cattman/progress setup.

I was the 1st one to bid on them, I said funk dat after I thought about it, hopping someone was going to bid on them and I don't get stuck with them. I decided I'm just going to get the FLTA2s JICs for my Maxima, I just want the best for my baby ! Hopefully these get a good review in the mean time, they looked good if they work as good as they look, that MIGHT kinda sway me towards them... Happy Motoring,
Mike

Oh btw 95-99s will NOT work on a 00-03 Max, the bolt spacing on the shock mounting to the steering knuckle is different. That is the only difference in the whole suspension really- mounting wise. U can use the rears on any 95-03 Max. I have 95 Max Konis in the rear with modified Konis in the front from a 95 also- and I have a 01. Hopefully the Coliovers here are for a US 5th gen, as there really wasn't a 5th gen in Japan.....
