My Teins are great. Incredible range of softness to hardness and plenty of ride height adjustment. I had mine fitted at Wholesale Suspension in Penrith a forum sponsor.

Its set pretty low, i havnt adjusted them myself yet, i dont think its all that involved.
But you wanna try get it equal to the milimeter across the car
As you can tell the back settled a bit lower in the 1st shot compared to the 2nd.
I Still think a little bit more would be nice
Looks really good. How does it ride at that hight? Do you have the shocks set to soft? If I could have it that low and put the shocks to soft and it rides well I'd be stoked.. Thanks for posting the pics..:goodjob:
I'm really happy with how it rides.
I've had alot of very low cars and this is very comfortable. The shocks were all set hard. i still have the back hard but the front is just a little softer
Cheers thanks for the info..I will have to have a play when I get them done..Not long to go now.. What exhaust do you have on your ute?
Just Stock. Havent gotten that far yet
there great had mine in for about a two weeks now. i was 50-50 on doing it to mine but now i dont think i will ever lower a car again without a set of these in it.
Thanks for all the replies..Im getting it done sometime this week when I can fit it in around work..I'll let you know what I think..6L ute did you get holes drilled in the tray? Also what settings do you run it on?
Cheers
Mine is a sedan just have an old sign in name lol should get that changed one day. Well when I picked the car up it was around 6 down from hardest and I was pretty happy with that in the way it handled and the ride. Took the olds and girl friend in the car for a drive few days later so I set them to the softest setting to see if they could pick up any differents, ride was so close to stock it wasn’t funny really smooth and soft even over a few ruff parts of the road. Saying that it didn’t perform as good which you have to expect. At the moment they are around 3 down from hardest all round as I took it for a blast around the hills last sat, haven’t driven it since but boy can it turn now totally different car, but ride is very hard on these kind of settings (very fun but). Im sure there is other guys on here with them in there car would be good to hear from them as to there settings and comments.
Just got my car back from getting the Teins put on...They set them at 8 front and back..Not really impressed with the ride that hard..I hope when I soften it off they wont be so rough.. Wasnt really impressed with Fulcrum..They didnt even look at me when I came in..Pretty much grunted at me.. Are you supposed to get a book or something to tell you about adjusting them??..I didnt get anything..They gave me the impressing that they set it and it was supposed to stay like that.. I asked to have holes drilled in the liner but they wouldnt do it... Any help on which way to turn the shock adjuster would be much appreciated...Will post some pics when I get a chance and give her a wash..We have been getting a bit of rain up here latley..
Just been down for a play...Seems that they didnt set the fronts to 8 like they told me but set them to full hard..I wound them off to soft and it was unbelievably better... Well the front was anyway..Still have to get in and change the backs.. Anyone pulled the tray liner out..looks like a big job.. Wish they had drilled the holles like I wanted!
Hey all, I've got the Tein coilovers on my SS-V. They are great. I'm looking at getting the EDFC (in car adjustable via LCD). Is WA Suspensions doing them yet and for how much? I heard it'll cost about $1400 supplied and fitted.
Anyone got the EDFC for the Teins yet?

I went back to Fulcrum after work and asked for the manual, but they said they had thrown it out! They are going to order me a new one.. I got the spanners, the allan key and the stickers.. Not sure if I will put the stickers on yet..The badge one is pretty cool but there is already so many badges on the back of my ute it might look cluttered.. I have set the fronts back to all the way soft..rides well but will be much better when I get to the backs and soften them up, then I will know if getting them was fully worth it..Will try to do it tonight...Thanks for all the responses..Every one has been a great help..:bow:
Just a few quick pics of the set up..

Apart from the King part No for the front coils upgrade on the teins, there is also a range of tien coils available for the struts, they are in the Tein catalogue, and Fulcrum stock many of them.
