JamieS Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I had a set of Superstreets reconditioned a couple of years ago, and they had to go back to Tein UK, who then had to get some of the parts from Japan. They came back good as new, with the latest standard parts on, but it was almost as much as buying a new set, and it took about 6 weeks.

Chris Wilson Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 To be honest they are not worth re conditioning, better to buy a new set of dampers. They are very crude internally, not a patch on Bilsteins if you can live without on car height adjustment. Entry level for half decent on car height and damping adjustable coil overs off the shelf are probably Nitron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 What model are the shocks? If they are relatively new and still in Teins range then may be worth overhauling, if they are an old model then as Chris says not worth it. You can download the Installation Manuals HERE, these include exploded views and part numbers for spares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 For well under £1K you could have my custom Bilstein and custom spring set up, for all four corners, brand new, unfitted, but delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
