Tein Coilovers

well, heres the problem......

got me new wrx import in Aug 03, everything cool, then found out i got a full setup of Tein Coilovers - fully adj ride height & spring movement, amazin!!!

now i got a bit of a leak on the passenger front coilover, oil of some kind coming down the spring. now, had a bit of a chat to my mate who works with scooby's, and he said i need to get a recon strut. so asked a few people on diff forums, and someone said i got to send the strut, or maybe the whole thing of to japan to get it done.

do i really have to?? dont wanna go without my baby for too long. anywhere in the UK i can sort this??

i thank you guys in advance for any help!!! :5:

thanks both you guys,

went onto the first website, they put me in touch with Tein, spoke to a helpful chap there who adv threy should (hopefully) be able to sort in in Milton Keynes, where their based and depending on what type of setup i got, overhaul costs for about £50, maybe a bit more..... well chuffed at the speed of replies.

thanks again!!!!

when i joined here, it was great. no idiots what so ever, everyone so helpful and honest. was a bit weiry at first as anyone would be, but i've bought a bright shiny gearknob from nelson ( top man, may i add ) which got sent no problems. he also got a s/hand hayward & scott b/box exhaust for me which he tracked down for me on other website, which he really didn't have to for me no special gain for him, he was just happy to help & its on my car now mate. sounds brilliant, Nelson getting the full de cat for me after my holidays (well saying that, hope he will ops: 8 days to go for hols ) so hopefully have it sounding awesome after the hols. you will never meet a more helpful bunch as you will here, a great laugh & plenty of banter with each other. just a shame we don't get much work done during the day :wink: always on here can't wait for the alton meet, be good to put faces to names

If we win the lottery (the big one) we will ALL come over and cheer you on when you go rallying :wink:



PS. Ours is no where near as big as the US lottery. How much did that women win, $60million was it. ours is between £2million & £4million these days (unless we get a rollover .......
Still I did win this weekend .................................................. ...... YESsssss £10
