aw11 tein coilover

nicochama · 10-29-2006, 10:14 AM

So i was searching on some japanese pages and found these on an aw11 page and then pictures of them on yahoo auctions japan. do you suppose that they are really for the aw11?

Looks like it... me likey. Where'd you find those on Yahoo Auctions?

yahoo japan auctions. you'll find an amazing amount of stuff on there. the catch is that they dont like to deal with and/or ship out of the country. now, however, if you have the $$ there are companies that take care of all of that for you and you just pay the company. the shipping is a bear on larger items (actually all items) and you have to pay the company a bit on top. however if you can get rare jdm stuff it may be worth it. these coilovers were aprox 500 usd. ive seen a few other brands ranging from approx 1k - 3500 us.... if you wanna look

auction.yahoo.co.jp

in the search bar type in aw11 and you'll get about 20 pages. if u want sw20 stuff do the same its about 38 pages.

Nice find. Does Tein have a service center in the U.S. yet? It would suck to have to ship them right back to Japan for revalving.

yeah they do, i dont know who but i was speaking to the agents in aus about a part for an AW11 and they said it was only in the US

Linkies to the companies?

You're going to want to be careful with buying coilovers like that. The dampers need to be rebuilt every few years and if there isn't a service center in the US that can handle it you can end up with no suspension under your car for months at a time.
