Tein S-tech on stock shocks. Anyone?
 
I am planning on installing Tein S-tech springs on my '04 RX-8 using my stocks. I want to see pics of cars that are riding on the S-techs. If you're riding on S-techs, please post a picture and give me some info on ride quality change from stock to using the S-tech springs.

Checkout this thread. It has a bunch of combos with pics.

Thanks for the reply, AWJay. Very helpful.
nuke0907...not so much. :tool:
AWJay, why do you think your car looks like crap? What don't you like about what the S-tech's did?

nuke0907 06-02-2010 08:43 AM

you come here asking for pics and you miss the sticky in the multimedia section? who's the tool now?

there are tons of threads already on the same questions you are asking. all you have to do is search for them.

There you go. Those are shots of the RX-8 GT I owned a couple of years ago. I installed S-Techs on some used struts I bought off of here that only had 10,000 miles on them (a lot better than the 60,000 I had on mine). It rode great and I had no problems with it, but I got rid of the car a few months afterwards so I have no feedback on longetivity. Assuming your struts don't have a lot of miles on them I'd think you would be okay for a while.

Thanks for the link, pdxhak. Much appreciated. Great library of pics. I even might go with Sprint instead.
