hello guys, have never had the need to post on this site......... until now! am importing my first rx7 within the next few weeks but want some goodies for it when it comes so am loking at getting some coilovers but not sure which ones?
am after a failry big drop but have been looking at tein, hks etc and none of them state how much they drop the car by. any help or recommendations on this would be great.
thanks again
mark :)
Hi Mark,
Last weekend l supplied and fitted a Tein Flex kit to an FD
As a new Tein distributor I didn\'t know really what their stuff was like and having raced for many years using lots of different coil over systems l have a little idea of what is good and bad.
I can tell you that l have been very impressed not only with the build quality, the adjustability of the units and it\'s damping capabilities, but also because where the strut\'s are two way adjustable on the platforms, they let you adjust the preload into the springs you want, then just by undoing one locking ring you can wind the whole unit into the lower part of the strut to lower or raise the car very quickly without unseating the springs from their platforms like most kits.
( These things are so adjustable you can either have the Range Rover look or dump it on it\'s door sills!)
Another added bonus was when l drove the car down the road on it\'s medium damper settings the car now just soaks up bumps and pot holes unlike the normal take yer teeth out crashes and bangs that go on in an FD with a trip down your high street !!.
BTW we have been offering a £50 (before VAT) discount to orders that come via Mazdarotaryclub for the Flex kit.
Hope this helps.
All the Best
Clive.
cheers that really does help, any idea of prices at all?

I may have a full set of Apexi N1 coilovers for sale very soon depending what the insurance say about my car.
They are the nuts and the quality is fantastic. If you shop around you\'ll see the Apexi\'s are usually the most expensive.
PM me if your interested as most things off the car will be getting posted up on here once I know for sure whats happening.
They look in very good nick and have alloy housings so they\'ll never rust away, do a search and you\'ll find plently of info about them on the net.
Cheers
