Ok guys.. i'm the guinea pig..

I'm picking up a set of the Tein HA-FT's with helper springs and pillow-mounts.. it'll cost me about 1100 bucks plus another 90 to ship.. i'm almost positive so far that they will fit.. from about 5 sources.. plus 3 in the US... soooo.. looks like i'm going through with it.. if it doesn't work.. i'm out 180 bucks(cost to ship back) and someone will sell it for me in taiwan.... oh well.. i'll take pics when i get them.. hopefully i won't chicken out and opt not to get them...

Please take before and after pictures, Teins are a good brand, hope it fits? If it does fit, tell us how the ride is, I've been waiting for the Super Street coilovers for a while now.

lol.. ok guys... i think i'm getting something else.. because that's a lot of fooking money.. so i ifound this company.. who basically lives off copying tein.. they're under raps because tein will sue their *** if they caught on.. so they are EXACTLY like the tein HA-FT, but without the high name.. alot of parts, like Mugen parts, are made in Taiwan.. then they are shipped to japan where they get their labels put on.. you know.. OEM company.. soooo.. this company is in bed with that OEM company for tein.. and they basically get copies and sell them for about 25000 NT.. which is. .umm.... 25000/34... lol. so that' s what i'm getting instead.. i know all you guys really care.. lol [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

well technically yes... but they're not really tein's because they aren't shipped to japan where the label and finishing touches get put on.. beacuse this company is the OEM for tien.. soooo.. yes i'm getting the ones EXACTLY like the tein... but not.. but like i said.. i'm not 100% pos. that it will fit.. but i'm about 98%.. hehe.. i'll take pics when i get them. should be on monday night.. your monday morning...
