I have a Ek Coupe, and I have been back and forth on which one to get. I dont know if the Tein Kit is worth more, or which one is better. Need help. Any Suggestions.......

 

Tein makes suspension for the CRX, and yet so many auto-x CRX guys run the Koni/GC combo. And that's for a reason, Koni makes a quality product.

Basic Tein Coilovers vs. High-end Koni Yellows? Yellow.

 

Real talk bro. I just need some good quality coilover kit that I can adjust height and stifness and I heard Koni Yellows are really good. But I also heard alot of Tein

 

Alot of people think Tein is overadvertised JDM garbage.
But I have no experience with either, just passing along info that I keep seeing pop up.

People say that the Koni/GC combo is the best for the price you can go with. GC even lets you pick custom spring rates. I've seen people do off-the-shelf GC rates with yellows for about $800, with all new parts.

 

How about some Tokico Bluess with GC lol

 

Ive got Tokico blues with Skunk 2 springs and love it..

Stiff but not bouncy...

Ive had koni yellows before.. Very nice shocks..

Never had teins... so im no help...

 

I had Tein Type FLEX coilovers on my Civic and they rode great, nice and stiff but not backbreaking. If I had to chose between Tein Basics and Koni/CG I would prob lean more toward the Koni/GC. I have no experience with either but have done tons of research and the Koni/GC setup seems to be the most cost-effective, high quality solution.

 

Koni yellow have been tested time and time again and still kick ass at the track. Tein IMO is more of the name and OMG JDM. Dont get me wrong I'm sure there are some nice Tein setups, but for the most part its all in the name and overpriced.

 

See Right now Im runnin on stock shocks and cut springs lol. anything is a upgrade but I want something that would last and Ill et my money worth.. And thats Drivable everyday.. I dont want it to be to stiff ..

 

ok ive had koni yellow very good but not drop enough for me last time i had them i used ground control coilover sleeves and springs on koni shocks worked perfect when dropping enough that you can get ur foot under the car and you get the little to no bounce. and for the last suspesion i had tein full coilover set i think they are over rated i mean i get just a lil les bounc than the koni and ground control mix but u spend 2x more on the suspesion, and for the best suspension ever felt was the apexi suspesion on my boys ek coupe , no bouce at all and can be set to perfect drop just try to get it at the right price
