Pics of Tein install

[turbowop]

I installed the Tein HA's today and took some pics while I was at it. I've never seen the actual E-39a setup until I bought them. So for anybody interested here are the pics. Please ignore the ugly rust coated rotors....the car has been sitting for roughly 2.5 months.

They went on with no problems at all. Now I have to wait to get my new injectors and intake pipe to fit my 2g mas before I even get to test drive it. Damnit.....

 

I was about to order mine today when they told me that they out of stock. Now I have to wait till April , when they get a new shipment. Damm!!

He initially thought he got a killer discount and told me he would sell them to me at cost since he's a close friend. Well...when he ordered them for me it wound up being a little more than anticipated. About $200 more, but I already had my heart set on them and had the money so I said screw it....order them anyway. Plus I already had my gc/agx setup sold to Karter. After shipping they came out to $1208 exactly. I saw the invoice...he didn't add one cent to it. If anybody wants a set I could get them for probably around $1250. MSRP is $1460. I think so long as my friend makes about $50 he would be happy. I already asked him about giving good deals to all you guys on the board and he said sure. If there's anybody else out there that can get better prices let yourself be heard.

 

money well spent....they are beautiful

Harry I had you send it to my parents address since I'm about to move into a new house and didn't want it to get lost. I'll call them today and see if it arrived.

 

Does the pillow-ball at the top of the front struts have any cushion? Or are they metal-to-metal? I wonder if they'd be acceptable on a daily driver.
