read this post awhile back and was honestly a biit scared due to the negative remarks or opinion on the tien stech springs. the problem was that cop these already and was not happy with the statement.....

i however still put them on with some brand new gr2's and the ride was no good...and with the measurement of a 2.5" drop i thought wow man u read it and is the same results. i spoke with a tien vendor and he said that i should carry the car to let he get a look and with a simple recomendation of kyb special street adjustable 4 way shocks the cars hieght was increased to 2" and the ride is now a dream.....she handles like theres no corners on the highways. the type of car that i have is the n15 nissan pulsar 3dr hatchback, which shares the same suspension parts as the b14's. this is not so say that the statement was totally wrong but that the possibility that there r shocks that can offer u a great ride with the stech springs r out there.
n.b. the settings that it is on now is 2.
