ive found a site that sells them for $1050 but charges $80 shipping. many sites are selling them in the $1200 and the rest are all under $1400 !

 

Want em for $1066 shipped?

 

I hate living in Canada

 

new ??????

 

Obviously

For that money, I'd rather get BC coils, but that's just me. I don't think Tein quality or design has improved over the last few years, but BC seems to be putting out some great products across all applications.

 

wtf thats they site i was talking about that had them for $1050... they dropped the price?

what is this on their site then? this one is the maxima part#

the other one has a different part #

 

They have a similar site for the $1050. It looks exactly the same except for the name.

It looks like that has the EDFC too.

EDIT: Never mind. Call them and ask lol

 

The BC's on my altima were terrible. Worst ride I've ever felt. Less than 5k miles later when temps started dropping to the 40's the springs started making noises over bumps, when turning. Won't buy again. Not sure if it had to do with the separate shock/spring in the back but I did everything they requested and attempted to make them better. Even at their softest it was a nightmare.

damn that's a crazy price...tuner, let the negotiations begin

 

Twin tube vs. Single tube
Even if the quality is the same (not likely), the twin tube is just much better suited for daily applications, especially in colder climates.

 

ahhh the one u linked is street advance

 

Tein Street Advance is supposed to be super street but better.

This place told me they are now available

Not a bad price at all.

 

Do it mike. Get some tein street advance on that pearly white 5th gen.

 

I plan on getting them within the next month. As much as I dislike being the first to test them out, the site seems pretty promising on the performance of these. From what I read they are just like super streets but allow more difference between the settings of firmness and the collars are made of something diff that is less prone to rust. We shall see.

This is why I need to be lowered soon.

 

I'm wondering if the Street Advance are at a disadvantage voer others, i.e, BR coilovers, based on the fact that they depend on the stock strut mounts vs. having the camber adjustment plate included...

 

This is actually exactly why this setup is in favor as far as ride comfort goes. I imagine that there is performance to be had by going with a pillow ball solid type mount but I doubt it will make a huge difference. As long as your suspension is good condition ie. control arm, sway bar(s), ball joints and such, it seems as tein with stock mounts is the way to go imo.

 

this is a first, new and improved product costs less than the older model. smells fishy !!

 

They probably found a way to make them cheaper w/o sacrificing quality. I may have to be a guinea pig

 

Tein SS and the new "street advance" both rely on stock upper mounts.

This is part of the reason they're so comfortable, and aren't as prone to noise, etc.
