Tein Super Street

[SexyPete]

I am after a set of tein super street, the problem i have atm is wether to get the super street with or without the tops and also wether to fork out to get the australian spec tein super street? Is there a major difference between the jap spec and aussie spec teins? Any help would be great.

as far as i'm aware the australian version has simply been re-valved with some softer springs.

Everything jap-spec is generally a pretty rough ride.

Correction, the aus spec ones are revalved, but use the same spring rates as the jap ones. To say everything Jap Spec is pretty rough is a generalisation...I have the Jap Spec Super Streets and I can tell you now, the ride is only a tad firmer than stock suspension...5k fronts 4k rears. Most of my passengers don't even believe me when I tell them I have Jap coilovers...

Thanks that is what i wanted to know, also is it worth while getting the camber tops in the kit or not it is only and extra $150 and i would rather just do it if it is worth it rather than muck around again later, how will the camber tops affect the ride?

my jap spec teins have camber tops and seem to make no real difference hard or soft

they are just rough as guts all day

its very uncomfortable, but handles great !

however on a bumpy road or corner you find yourself hitting the roof

You've got Tein HA's mate, that are most likely buggered if they've come from Japan. You can't group them together with the Super Streets.

I find mine very compliant, and a nice compromise between comfort and handling.

I agree totally...a lot of people confuse your run of the mill Jap Spec Tein HAs with high spring rates to the Jap Spec Super Streets...totally different kettle of fish.

so super streets are not as stiff of a ride as people are saying because they have the hr set of teins.

[phunky_monkey]

Yeah mate, they have a completely different version. To say all Tein's are uncompliant on Australian roads is too broad a statement.

x2, asking myself the exact same question atm

Camber tops for r32/r33/r34 are useless, due to the double wishbone suspension setup.

Camber tops only work for Silvia's, 180's, etc.
