There are Teins here already maybe not that exact kit but I would wait for the Tein type flex if I were you. Now those are bad a$$ coilovers. Those are supose to be here in about five or six months

update info:
the Tein SS will fit our cars.i got an email from Tein and they told me that the pillow upper mounts are optional too, but you have to use your stock mount rubbers. Here is what they said exactly:

Thank you for your interest in TEIN High Performance Suspension Products. The SS Damper are ride height adjustable with 16 levels of damping adjustment. You will be able to adjust the stiffness of your ride by setting the damping settings to 0 clicks (the stiffest) to 16 clicks (the softest). The SS Damper was designed with a shorter, but larger diameter, shell case then your OEM suspension. Providing for more travel for the bump stop and more oil capacity. Thus giving you a better ride quality then just using your OEM shocks with a lowering spring.The pillow ball upper mounts are optional for the SS Damper, because it's an added feature of the SS to be compatible with the stock rubber upper mount.
