No worries mate, will do. Not sure if I'll have them by Christmas and I'm still looking for wheels aswell. Soon as it's done though I'll update
-
Yeah I did PM last week but didn't get a response, though I'd try again hear aswell.
-
Hello mate. Never got a response, you still offering these?
-
Is there a how to on removing this?
-
That's sounds about rite for me, I find the standard car way to quiet even with my foot flat to the floor. My wife drives the car aswell though so the super resonated cat back may be better for me to keep her happy and still have the nice tone for me.
-
That's really good to hear as I'm planning to go there in the new year for this exact setup. How loud do you find it, would it be fine for daily motorway driving?
-
I have to agree. Iv never heard of anyone having trouble with tein and no one seems to have a bad word to say about them. Especially when talking about ride comfort over all out performance. Thanks Lucas@PartBox. I'll PM you.
-
Well all I can do is talk from experience and iv found it to be ok and a reasonable price. Hard to say if one is better than the other though as there are so many variables. Different cars, brake set ups, driving style and if your car ever sees bad weather. I'm sure my 86 will be very different to my civic and I'm looking forward to seeing how it performs when pushed. Thanks for all the info by the way, looks like this will be a good forum to learn from.

Oh rite. Funny you say that. Iv had rbf600 in my track civic for a while now and not given me any trouble. Never had them fade or overheat. Although it does have huge brakes and the car doesn't weigh much so this probably helps. Perhaps I'll try something different in the 86 as it's 300 kg heavier.
-
Thanks for the advice mate. If you recon they are both pretty good I'll probably go for tein as I do like being able to adjust damping aswell. I did the brakes straight away as they felt pretty rubbish. Put braided lines on and have ebc discs and green pads. Still need to do the fluid though, have had good results with rbf600 before so will probably use that unless you know a better one? Tyres wise will be continental pilot sport 4. Found them to be very good all round for road use in all conditions.

Actually I'm quite torn between the tein and KW. Surly the tein having the hydraulic bump stop will go some way to leaving me with pretty good ride comfort. And adjusting front camber on the top plate will be easier to adjust come alignment time. Faster for me to fit aswell as I won't have to get the spring compressors out. Hmm have to have a think. Lucas@PartBox, best price for KW and rear arms and best price for tein and rear arms. Thanks.
-
Cool thanks for clearing that up church. I'll take a look at the control arms. The suspension on these and being rear wheel drive is new to me as iv always had front wheel hondas and they are very different to set up.
-
Thanks for the offers. How about KW V1 and lower arms?
-
Great response! Thanks people. I'd have expected the flex A to last longer than 3 years. Iv got meisterR on my track civic and there 5 years old and only now looking tired. The KW's where high on my list aswell so looks like that will be the way to go. So if I go KW V1 I reuse the standard top mounts and can adjust the front camber to a good position with the lower slots. But I will need new arms for the back to get the camber in the correct place?
-
Will that affect the camber a lot with that sort of drop? I was hoping to get something with the adjustable camber top plates so I can set it back to normal alignment without buying lots of camber arms and bolts.
-
Hi there. Yes that would be great thanks. I'm not looking to start modding my car till the new year anyway. Want to make sure I definitely know what I want before purchasing parts.
-
Hi mate. Which one is it, do you have a part number and also what tips does it have?thanks.
