Will they fit?

Just found out that one of the Tein coilovers on my S15 is starting to leak :cry:
And over here it`s much easier (and cheaper) to find S14 coilovers then S15 coilovers!

So will they fit? :rolleyes:

Yes. The spring and damper rates are different though. However, I am running S14 coilovers, as are a few S15 guys in the UK.

Yeah thought of that option.. but sending them to the UK is quite expensive... and may take upto 4 weeks till there returned.
Don`t have the standard struts.. so have the car on the lift for 4 weeks is not a option.

Also... I hate Tein :p

Yeah... did bit of a test drive today, pushed it to 125mph... car feels really jumpy when there is the slightest dent in the road.

So think I`ll go with a complete new set... and have it set up properly also.
Jumpy car with the mega agressive diff like mine has is just dangerous!


Edit: Oh right... on a closed circuit offcourse... :rolleyes:

I hear exactly what your're sayin. My car came in with Jic coilovers i have them off now and was thinking of sending them to manufacture but there in America. So i bought a new set of Apex coilovers. It was one of the back ones and it was bottoming out and was just too dangerous to use..

so maybe a set of tein lowered springs is good enough? :confused:
you will not have enough travel and probably will bottom your suspension and bent your strut.




S14 coilovers should be fine as long they are "fully" height adjustable
