Default Which Teins should I go for?

I noticed there's 3 different types of tein's out there I also know they're all adjustable if you buy the EDFC.

I'm curious as to which ones I should get. The Super Drifts? Type Flex? Comfort Sport?

This car will be my daily driver and track car.

The super racing are very expensive my friend with EDFC it would probably be about 2900-3200 dollars.

><

Super Drift is a little more affordable I can get for around 2200 with EDFC.

How are the mono flex? Anyone try them?

i meant that with some sarcasm

its hard to suggest a coilover if we don't know what you want from it. saying its gonna be a dd with some track use doesn't tell us much...

I have 2 cars a 300zx and a 350z. I lend my 300zx to my close friend and we drive down to the track fairly often. We just screw around and drift time to time. Just normal fun times.

I'd honestly prefer performance over comfortability, but I'd still like to be able to keep the car in top condition for the ladies my friend.

Edit: Forgot to add that I love Teins. I've always trusted them with any other cars I've had. Much luck with these coilovers.

I would recommend BC Racing Coilovers. I have had them on my Z for a little over a year now, i drift and track my car on a regular basis, and they are top notch bro. They come with extenders in the rear for dampening adjustment, and they will only set you back about 1000 bucks.

I know for a fact that Braille battery's has ran 2 seasons of Formula D on them, and Blake and Bill loved them. Blake is also running Time attack this year on them, and BC has been running them for 2 seasons in Time Attack as well, and they were winning plenty of races on them last season.

sound like you're pretty set on the teins, so i'd suggest to go with the flex, since the only others available are the basic, ss, and cs. sounds like the flex best fits your needs/wants. but i hear its pretty stiff (never had personal experience).

however, for the same price, you can get the hks hipermax III or hipermax III sport. If it were my money i'd go with the hks...
