I considered buying there springs. They are cheap and I've heard good things about them, but I ended finding a great deal on the neuspeed. Check ebay for Tein.

they make a dampener sysem for the b6

they are like the leading suspension comapny in japan, next to kei office,

kei office was started by a guy who grew up in the autmotive track and canyon racing scene. his dad won like 12 JGTC events, which is like NASCAR here. except like way more respectable.

the company started by the "drift king" is known to be as the ideal setup for all japanese cars. however, they only make setup's for japaneese cars.

overall, tein, in my opinion, is a better company than bilstien, just due to thier dedication to perfomance that i have experienced through thier products, and how long they have been makeing quality suspension

sorry if i sound like an add... but i love japaneese cars almost as much as european cars

audi for life!

I had an MR2 with tein springs, never had a problem and they were great in the corners. Totally different car, but a reliable product nonetheless. Perhaps their entry-status in the Euro-tuner market is good for value...if you can get a great product at a good price, no one can argue with that.
