Default How to tell which TEIN Flex revision?

Hi,
How does one tell if they have the latest Tein Type Flex coilovers? I just recieved a set and would like to verify that I do indeed have the latest revision (new pillow mount design and 12Kg-mm springs) before I install them.

Thanks,

Clint (THX723)

Hmmmm I never heard anything about Tein doing a revision on the Flex kit.

There has been noises associated with the 'flawed' pillow mount design with the earlier revisions. The latest revision borrowed the pillow mount design from their CS model. Also, the spring rate has been increased to 12 kg-mm (up from 10 kg-mm) for the latest revision.

When did you get them? I know that they received a new shipment in December so maybe those are the new model of the Tein Flex kit.

I just recieve them, although it's tough to say when the 'dealer' actually aquired them.

Again, I just wanted to be certain before I spend the weekend installing them. Once they're in, I don't intend to spend more time to pull them off
