S.Tech Springs on 6gcs., they're GREEEEEN! Options

[tomazws]

So, finally got my Tein springs installed. It was one tough work, but was truely worth it instead of having to pay around 200 for having some mechanics do it.

I didn't take out the whole suspension. I went lazy, and only took out the structs, by unscrew the 3 nuts on the top, and unscrew the 2 screws at the bottom, and tried to angeled and shove the struct out of the wheel well. Everything was fine and dandy until the part where you have to put the structs back in. The structs were a lil bit expanded and needed to be compressed to about half an inch shorter inorder to screw in the bottom screws.

Me and 2 friends, it's like assembly line. After I take out the struct, I'll pass it on to my friend, and he'll compress the spring... and then my other friend will screw the struct back together and we will all try to shove that thing into place.

While we're at it, my friend helped me replaced the brake pads.

It was a good tiring work out...

i received my teins last week, was trying to install but its one hard job. after all the sweating i wasnt able to loosen the nuts on the shock tower, i gave up. anyone installed the TEINS know which ones are the fronts and rear?

I have a few more pics if needed. Just let me know.

here's a few though.

Fronts are at the top and the rears are at the bottom. You can actually tell which ones are the fronts by visual observation. The fronts are much wider in diameter than the rears.


Here are the fronts instatlled before put on my car.


Here are the rears.


hope that helps.
