Tein S Tech

[Lunatik]

Did everyone with the Tein S techs get the "raked" look on their MSP? If not, did you have something heavy in your trunk or were you just lucky I guess?

 

[macklum]

Mine has the raked look , I like the effect .

 

[MsP155]

i had that when i had the stock shocks then when i got my new HPs they were even

 

[CnoTataymo]

So the aftermarket HP's level the car out? Sweet! How is the handling compared to stock?

 

[macklum]

I still have the rake with my HP's ,as for handling the HP's really control the springs well

 

[Rush]

The rake will still be there with struts other than stock, just not as severely.

I hated the S-Techs on stock struts. WAY too much of a rake for me.

I have it on the LX with hp's. It looks raked but when I see it rolling, it's HOT. It's a good stance I think.

I never got the rake? Mine sits pretty even...

But you have an MP3, right? Us MSP people got different struts that came 'staggered', with the rear struts sitting higher than the front ones. Hence the more pronounced rake for our cars, with S-Tech's, when sitting on stock MSP struts.

im guessing s techs are not the way to go if i want an even drop..... im looking at sportlines... i saw some guy here in miami with them and its looks pretty nice

That's right. I have the h&r springs on the msp. I like that a lot. Low and even.

Oh, I saw MsP155's car today and I've got to say, he has no rake for having Tein S-Tech's. But he is running the aftermarket Tokico HP's. With 215/40's or 45's, he's got about a finger gap in the front and rear.

pics?

 

[Lunatik]

I'm thinking of buying the h&r springs in the for sale or just getting new sportlines

Tein S and Illuminas

this is the best i can show for now...but those arent my aftermarket HPs...those are stock!!...i did have the rake for a while then they dropped back down to this

 

[MsP155]

sorry my pic is kinda big!!

 

[justinlansdale]

do the 99-04 s-tech springs for the protege fit the MSP? the ones i've seen listed say "excluding MP3 '03+"
