got Tein Basics.....

damn....what an improvment....have to say one of the best things to compliment a turboed Lancer. i dont know what body roll is anymore. best thing is the faster u go the better the suspension is....SIMPLY AMAZING!! Also last week put on some Toyo Proxes 4. 205/50 R15 also badass

the 1st test drive was quite an experiance....did some illegal things that shouldt be discused on the fourms...but it involed Cops, High speed cornering,SPEED and loosing some ppl....thanx to suspension and tires. and my driving skillz
(this is not somthing i do all the time infact it was the 1st time, and dont plan on doing it again...roads were empty; also i do condone this kind of activity)

I had taken the car on a track in the local area with stock suspension it was alright....but now with the tyres and suspension the car is a whole another animal.

Pics will be up this week/weekend.

thats great, i'll be getting tein basics also but for now i'll stick to my s-techs as long as my shocks still work. where did you buy your basics from?

how about a video of your car in action instead of pics.

Do you have a problem with the Tien Basics being a bumpy ride?

I have had my coilovers on for a lil over a year and since i put them on it has been a bumpy ride...
