in the same shoes as u buddy, except is for my dc integra, if u could fork out 1.8, might aswell get buddyclub N+, i heard tein SS is softer den N+, will be a comfort ride if u go for tein SS, but when u hit heard corner, u'll love it, thats what i heard, i havent heard much from Tein HA but i guess all of them are allright as long as u dun go D2 or soemthing, + just watch out for ur budget and see what budget fits u:) sorry i guess from what i just said wont help u much but u know...haha just sharing:)

Tein SS is not bad for combo of street and occation trackdays....I used them b4 and they are very comfy on soft setting and still good for track on the hardest setting......Tein HA have a more stiff damper setting so its a bit more performance side of it......But NA is getting aged so if you want sth more decent it will be Tein Flex....There are also a lot more out there......not only BC and Tein....There is a few other question you may want to ask urself b4 you decide which one you wanna to buy
What do you expect from them
how often you hit track
That will help......

Don't bother with a discontinued model, go SS

Tein HA is very old model.

And Buddy Club N+ sux, no camber top adjustment.

If you don't track Tein SS is quite good.

10% tax is only for some states in the USA. i.e. California

buying from USA is great! but u just gotta risk it might not fitting on properly, maybe just slight minor things...

But suspension is pretty much same i believe.

tein ss over n+ anyday!

HA is still very good if you track, ss is softer.

Only if the item price exceeds $1000, you'll be paying 10%. Get them to send it as a gift, and you'll pay zilch.

Australia is entered into a Free Trade Agreement (FTA) with the United States. This means that over 99% of U.S exports are duty free. In other countries where we do not have free trade agreements with, we must pay duties and taxes (10% for car parts accoding to customs tariff) if the value of the goods exceeds $1000. :)
