to be honest, i think 1300 is nothing for a set of tein cs, considering the price of the car. i am not being cocky, i am just speaking the truth. it's worth it. my philosophy is always "do it once and do it right". ask people here, they know i have been saying that

Any other full coilover owners out there? speak up!
I'll take some pics of the wheels when they come in tomorrow. Might need some help with the stupid TPS issues.

How much are the teins? I was really hoping to find a spring strut combo because I probably won't be doing much adjusting of damper or ride height once besides the initial dialiing in.
I just got Coilovers for my WRX and I know my gf would kill me if her car rode anything like mine.
Thanks Jeff. Any pics of your car?

In the Subaru world, Many complain about the teins being "clangy". It might have been an older design. Do you guys experience anything like this? What about rusting?
