Tein BASIC coilovers

[richard_k]

Hey guys

I was just wondering whether these tein basic coilovers on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TEIN-BASIC-COILOVER-DAMPER-ACURA-TSX-04-05-06-07-08-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQfitsZModelQ3aTSXQQhashZitem2a09 f217f0QQitemZ180555487216QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruck Q5fPartsQ5fAccessories would fit my 2004 euro lux.


It says that they fit the tsx but i'm not sure if they would fit my car :S

[elitee]

yes they will

[richard_k]

ok, but are absolutely sure? do you know other guys on here that would know? i just don't want to buy it and find out it's different by like one bolt or something is all :D

[max9907.0422]

yes they will

x2

as long as the ebay seller doesnt sent you the wong set, aussie dollar are strong atm, best time to buy stuff from the US

[Tai]

TSX = Accord Euro ( CL7 )

[elitee]

Ah pretty sure the cl7 is the JAP version with the k20
TSX is cl9 having the k24

[richard_k]

yeah i know that but would they still be compatible with the CL9?

[Simonnn]

CL7 and CL9 suspension setups are interchangable, they'll definitely fit! :)

[richard_k]

Alright cool i'm also considering tein SS coilovers http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/04-08-Acura-TSX-CL9-TEIN-SS-Coilovers-DSA64-KUSS2-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem1c120c4608QQitemZ12056 1878536QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccesso ries..the price seems alright :D

but yeah most likely these:

[Simonnn]

The SS are the same as the BASIC but they have damper adjustability. I considered both of these just a few months back, but ended up getting the Buddyclub N+ (and have NO regrets at all :D)

[elitee]

As said above, Check out BuddyClub N+

I'm about to purchase a set soon (Y)

[maestro]

sorry for hijacking the thread - didn't want to make a whole new one
have any of you guys heard of racing logic coilovers and if they're any good on the cl9? couldn't find much info about them after doing searches
the spring rates are 12 at the front, 7 at the back

[white_ep3_civic]

Racing Logic I have heard good things about. I wouldn't go Tein. I had BuddyClub N+ and regret getting the Tein SS now.

[richard_k]

actually i called up pedders before and he quoted me $2285 for pedders XA coilovers with camber kit all fitted. The guy reckoned he'd go them over Tein SS anyday of the week as they're a better ride lol. what do you guys think?
i'm probs gonna go pedders :D he made some good points.

[richard_k]

for now i guess. better than just prokit eibach springs :D

[white_ep3_civic]

I wouldn't go pedders never liked them. You get the same quality out of Tein or any other brand out there and it's half price.

[sameol3]

I'd go Tien SS over pedders, not saying anything wrong with pedders but piece of mind goes futher in my books. Not many complaints with Tiens and im pretty sure Pedders coilover range hasnt existed as long as tiens range.

[richard_k]

yeha true but yeah if the tein setup has something wrong you'll be waiting ages for parts and i guess pedders have a good warranty but i'll be getting new rims first :D

[x10Hz]

As said above, Check out BuddyClub N+

I'm about to purchase a set soon (Y)

+1 buddyclub go lower than tien and they are cheaper than the SS

[white_ep3_civic]

I thought the buddyclub N+ were more expensive then the tein ss?

[Simonnn]

I thought the buddyclub N+ were more expensive then the tein ss?

It depends on where you source them from, they're roughly within the same price range. Go with the Buddyclubs!! :D

[elitee]

I thought the buddyclub N+ were more expensive then the tein ss?


Tein's are about $100 less depending were you get them

Would rather spend the extra $100 and get the BC N+

[white_ep3_civic]

Ah k. Yeh same the buddyclubs are much less stuffing around too. With the Tein SS I had too use the stock strut tops.

[x10Hz]

yeha true but yeah if the tein setup has something wrong you'll be waiting ages for parts and i guess pedders have a good warranty but i'll be getting new rims first :D

as yourself if the pedders are worth $800 more than tien of buddyclub. if your daily driving them they arent going to brake.. best value for money = tien ss or N+

[richard_k]

yeah but that price includes fitting and camber kit..i think the pedders are $1600 or so just for the coilovers themselves

[elitee]

yeah but that price includes fitting and camber kit..i think the pedders are $1600 or so just for the coilovers themselves

you can get BC N+ for $1680 + rear camber kit delivered from HeelToe

[richard_k]

is that with shipping charges?

[richard_k]

i'll have a looksy :D

[richard_k]

ok so i had a look and i can get these http://www.heeltoeauto.com/Buddy-Club-N-Damper-Kit-TSX-03-up-BC02-NP03CL9-pr-1430.html for $AU1582.56 which INCLUDES an ingalls rear camber kit and shipping to Australia..which is a damn good price! haha :D

They would be the coilovers you're talking about right?

[elitee]

Yeah those are the one mate.
Now is a good time to purchase from the states !

[white_ep3_civic]

Wow that is cheap. I think they around the same price here without a camber kit

[Darkii_]

Dam thats cheap, good time to buy for sure.

[x10Hz]

dont forget to ask heeltoe to invoice you for less than $1000 or you will have to pay import tarrifs and GST.
and just so you know..
http://www.advancespeedshop.com/buddy-club-coilover-damper-20032007-acura-np03cl9-p-245.html

thats were i got mine from, but i only paid $815.. shipping is around $200.

[Simonnn]

I bought my N+ from advancespeed a month or two ago (thanks for telling me about them Sem!) at $1 AU = $0.89 US.. wish I had waited a bit more!! :(:(:(

[richard_k]

ok thanks for the tip and the link x10Hz :D that's bloody cheap!
and advancedspeed would do the same thing for with the invoice?

[x10Hz]

i was stupid when i ordered mine, and forgot to ask, but im pretty sure they will.. i had to pay $255 import tax + GST :(

[luxobarge]

Anyone used the H&R Street coil over on an Accord Euro?

Just thought ide throw it out there and get poeples opinions. Theres a mob in the US (www.shox.com) that some MX-5 owners have used recently and the feedback is excellent... very helpfull and very fast shipping. Just remember to search for Acura TSX if looking at parts for a euro.

Seems like a relatively cheap option with the dollar the way it is:

H&R Street Performance Coil Over 2004 - 2008 Part # 50151 Lowers 1.2"-2.5" F / 1.0"-2.8" R $1062.00

[richard_k]

which ingalls camber kit did youse get from advanced speed cause there is two items on the page and i'm not sure which one to get? cause i'm looking at getting coilovers this week :D

[richard_k]

is it this:
http://www.advancespeedshop.com/ingalls-camber-20042008-acura-35591-p-10689.html

[Simonnn]

I think these are the ones you're looking for: http://www.advancespeedshop.com/eibach-proalignment-20042008-acura-rear-camber-567290k-p-15138.html

[richard_k]

yeah i saw them. would that price would be for just one set?
and doesn't that site have the proper ingalls ones cause they're different to the ingalls ones on heeltoeauto :S

[Simonnn]

Pretty sure thats the price for a set of rears, best to ask beforehand I guess :) you dont necessarily need ingalls, these should do the job!

[MICK_C]

Would the basic ones in the first post of the topic fit a 2005 Euro non luxury?

[Simonnn]

Yup, all suspension in CL9 (2003-2008) are the same :). Also applies for Acura TSX and Accord Euro-R (CL7).

[MICK_C]

oh ok cheers, any 1 purchased those tiens basics online before or had any issues?

[richard_k]

ok guys i finally purchased the buddyclub N+ coilovers and 2 sets of the ingalls rea rcamber kit from advancedspeed auto. great to deal with :D
