kyb gr2 + tein spring q - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have a silly q, but for those of you with kyb gr2 + tein spring, how long do they last? or have lasted you? and are they prone to be blown? would like some user feedback, found some feedback, but nothing to conclusive.

also, how is this compared to stock? the drive wise is more stiff? inspires confidence?

Thanks in advanced for the responses.

Good enough to daily, still more body roll than coilovers due to the soft spring rate. Teins are some of the softest springs out there for an S-chassis.

To be honest, it'll probably out handle most shitty entry level coilovers as the damper/strut is probably better haha.

Eh, if he runs stiffer springs like Eibach Sportlines, it probably would. Tein springs rolled so much, I could open the door sideways and touch the ground.

+1 on the Eibach. Had the KYB's with Eibachs for 2 years in shitty NY roads, no issues what so ever. It was a comfy ass ride for sure and still performed well.
