I think I might pick these up but how easy/hard is it to get the top caps for the rear?

 

Rear caps aren't hard to get, but the struts could be blown. Then you'd have to go through the trouble of rebuilding them, etc. I would wait for some good condition ones

 

well that fellow certainly likes to write in all caps, but at least his engrish is berry much good.

I tried to track down single pieces for Teins once and was told they cant be ordered by themselves, but this was from a vendor, I was going to try at the US headquarters down in So Cal since i heard they are alot more helpful. BTW, what Teins are those??

 

Tein customer service sucks IMO. I emailed them a week ago about some spanner wrenches and they still have not gotten back to me. Last time I emailed Tanabe about my coilovers, they got back to me the next day.

 

lol, well so much for that!

 

never heard of tien...

I've never really liked TEIN, but I was just there last week. They're located in So-cal so it shouldn't be that hard to get piece part items from them. What exactly are top caps? Are they the pillowball mounts?

Also, if they're blown I don't think they're worth it. My brother just got his overhauled and revalved (the reason why I was there) and it cost over $600 without shipping.

Doing a basic search on google shows no matches for the part #s and I couldn't find anything on TEIN's site. Since they don't tell you what kind of coilover system it is, I'm extremely iffy about this.

 

Yeah I've been trying to look up those part numbers to no avail. I would say no go

 

Tein Wagon's suck, stay away from them.
