What TEIN's do I have?

Postby JMather » Sat Jun 27, 2009 12:04 am

Well when I bought my car it had some TEIN coilovers on it. how do I figure out what ones it has? Everyone asks me "Oh yeah what TEIN's do you have?' and I normally say green ones. :lol: so if anyone can tell me if there are any markings to look for it would be swell.
Cheers.

Anyway, take a wheel off and look at the shock, they should say what model are on it i.e HA, superstreet, flex or monoflex

The tien super style is a drift spec coil over they are worth more than the tien super streets...

yeah hard :roll:

it was a random word i pulled out of my ass, FYI the drift spec tein coilovers are called "Super Drift", also they do not make these for the MX-5/Miata.

Thank you come again.

Well, the spring perch is not height adjustable so they are not Flex, mono-flex, or super streets.

Maybe they are S.Tech?

I'm pretty sure S-Techs are springs only

A cursory google indicates they may be the Tein NA
looks like an older model...
