I will like to know what are the best coilover that i can buy that will improve my lancers (evo 7 shape) ride and cornering capabilities but not drain a hole in my pocket . thanks

 

tein coilovers

 

JIC FLT-A2

 

Yeah, JIC's got the best coilovers right now, but they'll cost u an arm and a leg...there's a new kit comming out that'll cost u less that both Tien and Jic...just be patient and keep checkin the forums

 

yeah...

Best = Jic ($1900)
Second Best = Tein SS ($1200-1500)
Economical = Tein ???? ($800-900)
Just springs = Ground Control or Skunk2 ($300-400)

Jic is the top performing part, but Tein is a very close second for hundreds less, especially if you get the pillow ball mounts to go with them. The economical kit that is coming out soon is nice but doesn't have adjustable dampening, which comes in handy for tuning your car's handling characteristics. And the spring only kits are only worthwhile if you can find a decent aftermarket shock to accompany them. I personally went with the Teins and a camber kit, and it has impressed both me and my competitors so far!

 

the new tein basic dampener will be available soon at around $900-$950 i had them tested on my car and was truly impressed with them they are my next mod

 

fyi.. the JIC setup is 1700 shipped, and the new set is out from tein, look aroudnt he forums, rock posted it

 

You mean they didn't give them to you, or at least a fat discount for letting them test them on your car?

 

so if i understand correctly the tein basic is ajust... in ride height but not damper adjust.... but if i wait there will be a damper adjust.. basic tein correct me if im wrong

 

The basic Tein just came out and is available through RRM. They are ride height adjustable and not dampening adjustible. There are already fully adjustible Teins out, called Tein SS, which run about $1200-$1500. The basics came out so we could have ride height adjustability with some nice struts, since there are no aftermarket struts available yet.

 

yeah you had it backwards. The one with adjustable ride height AND dampening has been out for a long time, while the basic (just ride height) kit is new.
