Someone should add Tanabe Sustec Pro "Fives" to the list... I think they might be on to something with the TEAS Active Damping system.

JIC FLT-A2 seems to be an old school coilover now in Japan. Do you remember which Teins you drive on? I've been on a set of old school HA's, SuperStreet and Flex... the SuperStreets are quite comfortable, but the HA's were a nice stiff ride, the Flex even more so.

The spring rates for the Supra "Fives" sound a tad stiff - 14.0f/10.0r compared to 10/7 for HKS and 10/6 for Tein CS - but the damping is 16-way adjustable so I'd imagine it wouldn't be bad on decent roads - probably comparable to Tein BASIC or FLEX.

As they were talking about on page 1 of this thread, will 93-98 Supra coilover systems directly bolt on to a 95 sc400 without any modification, or just the SC300? Please clarify!

i have the JIC's right now. They are ok, too soft for my taste. i voted silk roads becuase of the huge piston in them, they ride really nice in my shop's s14. I would just get different spring rates with a 18/16 and valves adjust accordingly. so if someone wants to trade me... :-)

Anyone tried D2 Racing ones?
It seems like they go little bit cheaper than Megan from this web site

I have brand new JIC FLTA2 on the way.![Big Grin](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Sold my tein HA's
Pulled from JIC's web site
The JIC FLT-A2 is the flagship coilover system. All FLT-A2 coilovers are designed on US-spec vehicles for US streets, fitment and performance is unmatched. Included in the kits are pillow ball upper mounts with adjustable camber plates. For flexibility, the dampers have 15-way compression and rebound adjustability. The spring rates are of the linear-rate type with independent ride height adjustable lower brackets. This allows adjustment without compromising damper compression or rebound travel. Based off of racing technology, the FLT-A2 is a street performance suspension, customizable for full time track use.

stance all the way. the ride is stiff but i liked it in a friends 95 sc300 5sp(its a girl too
). i would love to have a set of zeal coilovers but the price and the ride just sucks for the street. my buddy had a set of zeal on his fc rx-7 and they are jaw-rattling. on the other hand on the track it handles like a mother......
