[GOT04]

what is the difference between

tein super street coilovers

and

tein flex coilovers

is flex for track/sprints racing???????

i tryed seaching on the tein website but its a dead website for info on anything.....

The Super Streets are more aimed at street driving and Flex have a bit of hard driving in mind, they come with stiffer spring rates, different valving, possibly larger piston and more valve sophistication?

Either way, they are both twin tube unless you get the Flex mono (new).

Basically, the Flex is a compromise between street and track/sprints.

Different spring rates and apparently valving is different too, to suit our roads. I'm not sure if the are physically different.

SUPERSTREET are a good compromise. not to choppy and relativly light springs.

TYPE FLEX. is more aimed at track style driving. although there not the greatest.

type MONO-FLEX. these are a great suspension. i was very suprised when driving on them, not as choppy as flex. just good solid feel with no bouncyness.

if i were you id go superstreet. or save up for mono-flex. soooooo much better. an dthere called winding-master lol

Incorrect. Only difference between jap and aussie Super streets are the valving. Spring rates are exactly the same.
