Megan EZ vs Megan street vs Tien street - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

guslucatero · 03-10-2014, 02:51 PM

I have tried to serch on the forums, and look page by page to see if there is any input on this type of coils.
And for some reason i cant find any, i even searched on different forums as well.
Does anyone have any pro and cons from these three coilovers?
Just want something to lower my car for daily drive and autoX like once every month or so.

-thanks in advance

From stories I have read Tein is by far the better coilover from a quality perspective

What kind of rates are you looking for?

Racecomp Engineering · 03-10-2014, 03:28 PM

How much do you want to lower the car?

What kind and what size tires do you run?

I was about to suggest some Koni shocks and RCE Yellows!

It'd be best to consult @Racecomp Engineering about those. I don't have any experience with that combo.

Disclaimer: think about it, if someone is going to review something, they do it out of spite and anger due to a problem with it and what not, I've read multiple more accounts of negative reviews on stuff, rather than positive reviews

yes i know what you mean....people only do write reviews when they dont like the item.
there are rarely those who write good reviews.
But i just want something simple but still good choice, dont want to waste money where is not needed

I'm all for saving money. In terms of Tein Street vs Koni/RCE yellows, the combo is probably cheaper. Instead of the yellows you can always substitute for some Swift Springs, more expensive, firmer rates probably more sporty & you'd still be under your budget. I haven't heard one negative thing about swift springs, or about RCE yellows either.

guslucatero · 03-10-2014, 04:05 PM

yes your right, but i am thinking how low of a drop will it give me?
also what about handling when i take it to autoX once a month.

RCE lowering springs are firmer (4.5kg yellows and 5kg tarmac grays).
