Default Nice pic of racing Hart C4 wheels with Tein sus.

Here is a pic from Import tuners mag oct 2003 issue of 19" Racing Hart C4 wheels with tein suspension lowered 1" so they claim but it seems lower to me????

I love the look of this ride ht. Nismo is suppose to be droped almost as low but to me, this looks much better. I want to convince myself NISMO S is the way to go but I keep coming back to the option of ht adjustment and EDFC for ride adjustment within the car.

Does anyone know if Tein will handle as well as Nismo S? Is it a good suspension or is NISMO much better?

The article listed West end alignment (310) 808-9233 in LA for camber adjustment saying it would cost about $200 and 2-3 hours labor.

I am really debating between these Tein and Nismo S suspension set ups so all suggestions would be of great help.

These C4 wheels are much different than my HRE 445 but I think they look great. The stance of the car looks sweet to me....

I saw 350zSpeedRacer's Track Z with G-Attack @ Hallett Circuit, I couldn't tell any differance between mine and hers. If you want it to be lower go with the Teins. Also, the Teins (Type FLEX) will w/o a doubt perform better than the G-Attack.

I would go Tein flex if i go Tein. The question I have is is the Tein flex as good a handling suspension as the Nismo S?

How about durability, do they last a long time and can they be rebuilt?

Thanks, Jeff

Do you have any idea how long (or miles) I could expect a set of Teins to last before they would have to be rebuilt? BTW..I love this website, so many people can give you valueable info!

I'm not sure, one of the vendors might know. Try to contact Rich at Bullet Proof Automotive. Very knowledgable.
