Talking My Tein Flex story

---Taka production presents---
TAKA's Tein story

Clips made for my assessment of Tein Flex and EDFC - well, it is basically some home videos about some driving after the Tein's being installed. The videos were made not to compare (being as non-judgemental as it is) but just want to have fun with it.

Thanks to astro, ILIV48, 8000rpm, auzoom, Kalli, MIRX*8 and Dr. Flynn for their contributions. Oh, and the Porsche drivers too

Scene 1 - Road Test
Staring: Taka and astro.
Description: It was done on the Sat morning after alignment. It is to compare the "ride" of the stock to Tein. Our intention is to compare comfort level but grip is also mentioned.

Scene 2 - Alignment
Staring: Adrian from Stuckey, Taka and astro
Description: astro and I went to Stuckey Tyre Service for professional alignment. Adrian has done car driven by nannies to Porsche Carrera Cup drivers.

Scene 3 - Track day
Staring: Mr. Porsches, Taka, astro, 8000rpm and ILIV48.
Description: Fun clips from the Event Oneill track day, 9th March.

Download here (57.2Mb)

Scene 4 - Drift day
Staring: Dr. Flynn (Professor of Skidology), Taka, auzoom, MissyK, ILIV48, MIRX*8 and astro.
Description: I am sure you know about our drift day. The first one I ever had. It was fun but skill is hard to be perfected.

EDIT:
I will clarify with d00ny why sometimes the download is slow (also on the link, please right click and use save target as...). Maybe someone using a download accelerator and a few people downloading. Please enjoy.

Well I was going to but the scale broke. The measurement was very in consistant.

I will do it ASA it finishes.

There is only one place I know that have those scales. Let me know if there is another one in Melbourne.
