Good stuff! Give a report on the ride, so that people on here with the v6 engines (240/320) can get an idea of the quality.

thanks. those pics were taken with my MotorolaV635 camera phone.. as for where I got them from, yes LorinserCclass, I did get them from CarLab. Darwin there does great work with his customer service along with his prices. I'm not sure if I can post prices, someone let me know if it's not in any violations... or PM me if you're interested

Just to do a bit of a comparo between the similar KWs and Teins (as far as looks)... Drew when I get my rear arms installed I'll take pics as well. These do look pretty sick though. Any comments for the ride (he has a v6)?

LINK: drexappeal's thread for TEIN Basic and Super Street Coilovers
I started a thread telling everybody about these being in development (and now, obviously available) quite some time back. I am doing R&D for the TEIN suspension on the 230 K Sport Sedan (which will most likely translate to the coupe as well).
The 240/320 R&D was done on another car, but the weight difference was off between the v6 engines and the I4 engines (hence, the information I posted about the front of my car riding taller than stock, when they tried the prototype springs).
I was told different things back and forth (i.e. My car would be used for R&D with the Super Streets, then S-tech springs only, now both).
That's the chit chat. It's not private, in fact, it's very public chit chat.
Blake asked me to check on the BASIC's currently available for the 240/320 and whether or not they translate directly to fitment on the 230's, which I will have more information for after tomorrow through Friday.
