^^^ no kidding bro, it looks too new to be second hand. Usually used Tein sets the bottom of the rear struts have got the paint peeled of because of how they are clamped in. This one looks like either it was never fitted or fully resprayed.
why worry abt Customs? Ohlins you got quote AUD 1.8K+ is landed price or just purchase in Japan? if landed then you have nothing to worry abt tax as seller responsible for that.
based on pics you attached of the GT Wagon without descriptions and as Evo advised, either never been fitted or fully re-spayed/re-conditioned. hmm.... good luck!!
bro Accord I think you sold me on the idea of ohlins already. Out of curiosity, whats the lowest drop you can go on ohlins? also its only hi/lo adjustable yeah? need camber kit?
will talk to the guy you recommended at rms. Thanks!
no matter which coilover/spring modded, you still need at least the rear camber kit on RB1 once lowered. Ohlins DFV is only height adjustable no stiffness adjustment. not sure the lowest drop on Ohlins as i can never done that but here is the official website for yr reference. http://www.carrozzeriajapan.co.jp/oh...eup/honda.html
just an advice/recommendation from my experience but you can ignore, get the optional 10k spring (may be extra cost but not sure how much) instead of standard 8k spring with the kit as Melbourne roads are much better than Sydney and u will be more happy. personally i'm not disappointed on Ohlins DFV esp my RB1 is wife's daily with kid, but if i have the optional 10k springs will be better.......
btw, have you said before Tanabe Pro 5 cost AUD1.5k which is very good (have u ask JDMConcept here for Pro5 as they are authorized distributor). Still other brands like JIC and even air sus (look for Ajto) are good as well. keep yr option open.... come on guys, assisting yr fellow RB1 owner here
Ask mugen_retro cause he ordered ohlins but with stiffer spring rate.
where is he? Mod Ajto, setup a RB1 meet in Melb la for members to experience the ride.... i'm interested to know how much extra as tempting to change mine to 10K esp trackday is coming.....
He's hardly online on ozhonda anymore as he has another car to play with hehe
pls check for me Dan, pls, pls.....
unfortunately Im still waiting for my TEIN Hybrid to come otherwise I can give you some idea how its perform . . . .
^^ personally i don't want to know on yrs as i'm too damn jealous haha
Come to melbourne Andy hehe
