Tein flex z is amazing for DD, spirit drive, and mountain, and i am going to the track next month and see how it does on track.
I drop -1.2 front, and -0.8 rear, -3 camber front and -2.5 rear, 4 click front and 7 click rear, the car grip like a crazy. However, my previous coilover FA prime 8k spring feel more respond than tein 6k, but 8k spring is really hurt my back for DD, so I switched flex z. If you want to lower your car but dont have budget, tein flex z will probably the best. |

Anyone think the new Flex-A's would be worth the extra cash?? http://www.tein.com/products/flex_a.html They are a Flex-Z with the new Hydraulic bump stops.

How are peoples Flex Z's holding up?
I've been a huge fan of the ST coilovers, and have run them and been trusting them on many friend/customer cars for DD duty, but since Tein has reinvigorated their DD low price point segment I'm really curious to 'take one for the team'/see if ST needs to be worried about their market share. I've been debating which setup to get this spring since I just sold my Swifts.

After installing front/rear whiteline sway bars I left the car on 8 clicks from stiff. Track day was great. I'm atleast 12 track days in about 1.5 yrs. Teins are still working

Hey Everyone!
Could one of you guys snap a couple pics of the manual for the Tein Flex Z with the diagram and table showing the factory measurements (Those A,B,C,D measurements between the collars). I bought some used and have no idea how to set them back to factory height of 1.3 inches. Someone please help me! I'm trying to install them this Saturday! Thanks for all your help! Here are my coils -J |

Hey guys, I just installed my Tein Flex Z's and my rears are still pretty high up (to me at least). I saw on Tein's website that the rears are supposed to drop -3 inches, and I don't think I'm near that even when fully maxed out. Has anyone had any issues dropping the rears? Thank youu!
