I went out today and got a quote to get some new springs or coilovers in my car so it will pass rego. Its going to cost about $500 for a set of king springs with an alignment etc. or about $3000 for a set of tein adjustable coilovers with an alignment and tuning etc. Is it worth the extra $2500 for the coilovers?
Imo dont [f**k] around with springs as they will be $500 and labour, then labour again later when you need to replace your stuffed shocks which are mismatched (the oem shock valving wont be suitable for the springs)
$3K for teins is a fkn ripoff!
Since the USD vs AUD is favourable atm import yourself a set of flex's for around $2K and do it right the first time round.
Don't bother with springs!
If your on a budget get something like this:

Otherwise your looking at about 2k+ for some Japanese coilovers.
