Since im always iffy about ebaying. Rather see em in person before I buy. Anyone ever buy some tein springs from a shop locally?

 

nope, sorry

 

Where is local? I'm in Portland and purchased my Tein Flex coilovers at a local shop.

 

Yeah sorry, seattle.

 

Ah ok. Well there is a shop in Portland (Hillsboro) that sells them. They will match or beat any online price as well

 

Name of shop. Think they ship? Other wise time to make a portland strip club trip.

I had Rishie order me some with my RPF1s :D

 

Always good to keep it with a vendor! You order Tein S?

 

Hey! You're lucky you're a different shade of gray. There are already two of us here with RPF1's

 

I still cant decide exactly what tires to pick up. Seattle area member suggestions with the rain. Eagle F1s is what im leaning towards. Someone slap me if im being dumb, please.

 

Springs showed up today! Thanks to Rishie! So busy for 2 weeks to install them.

 

i kinda wanna learn how. can i come check out your install when you're ready?

 

3 days is fast! GL with the install. Be sure to preload...

 

I am down to come with Dondo. I was planning on getting some springs this summer and would like to come watch the install.

 

Im thinking im going to do the install at a coworkers since I dont really have many power/air tools. Plus im really new at this. He has done his share back in his day before he had kids.

Further more. I just dont want to be rude bringings over people I have still yet to meet. Trying not to step on a friends toes whose going out of his way.

Ill take pictures for sure. Maybe after I get some rubber on these RPF1s you guys can swing up for some DICK'S. Deluxe Dick's with your name on it.

 

All goes well today might try to install my springs. Unless it starts to rain than ill wait a bit longer. Ill see how its looking outside after some Ihop. Wish my tires would get here faster

 

Well I got the front done in about a hour and half. I toasted my thumb with a hammer though. Hurts so bad. Dont think I broke it, but makes you know your alive still. lol.

 

So I had to eat so I down jacked the front and went to get subway. Here is a picture of what it is now.

 

Im about embarrased as I was about smashing my thumb with a hammer. But my lug key has disappeared. Idk what happened it sprouted legs and walked off. If someone around Seattle is nice enough to let me barrow a lug key for another day so I can finish off my springs. Damn im a tard. PM me please ill come out to you within reason, not coming to oregon lol.

 

borrowing one from a dealer might be easiest. there are like 4 flavors of keys and you need the right one.

 

Im just going to use a grinder and a crescent wrench tomorrow. Vice grips maybe too? Little brute force if the stealership tries to take more of my green.

On a positive note. When you guys decide to get your springs and you want help ill help out. Do it for you or stand over your shoulder and make you break your thumb like I did

 

nice. thanks man.

 

Yeah np. Its easy for me atleast. Maybe you both can buy your springs at the same time and we can tag team it one day. Stop visiting the Bikini Coffee stands for a month and theres your springs

 

yeah i may be awhile as i'm not sure i want to drop it at all.. i'm still worried about scraping if it was any lower
