Best coilovers?

Ok I currently have my eyes on Tein mono but someone told me today I could get something much better for the same price range, I don't want HKs stuff anymore as my ones have corroided abit. I read few points about the KW V3, what's the best for the supra?

I think our resident suspension guru cw recommends nitron coil overs

Ok keep the comments coming I need to know the best.

I read KW but I sure am sure CW will know

For a reasonable price Nitron double adjustables take some bettering. You need to buy stuff that can be serviced in the UK.

But you say "the best" which would be bespoke from somewhere like Exe-TC and cost more than the car itself is worth. http://www.exe-tc.co.uk/world-rally-suspension

Eibach also made some absolutely top end ultra lightweight, ultra low internal friction dampers but I think they have stopped production now. I have a couple of sets for Skylines and they are breathtakingly intricate inside and a joy to work with.

Also it depends what you're using the car for, if its just road then why do you need "the best"?

I heard this topic has been covered a million times.

I also heard there is this elusive thing called a search bar, yet no one can ever seem to track the little critter down.

I hate it when I have to tell Mod's they are wrong. But seriously you are. The forum has never had a search bar.

Honestly, you should know better.

Better off searching on google i find

If you're looking for the 'best' then forget Tein or any other dubious brand. Go for a big name like Bilstein, Leda or Nitron - but most importantly have it all set up by someone who knows what they're doing.

Ok thanks guys , speaking to my tuner see what he saying .

Be sure to post up his recommendation and reasoning

I've had loads of setups including CW/HKS/Tein/Ohlins/HSD/BC/Cussco/Ksport and nothing has come close to Tein Mono flex IMHO, such a nice street setup, the confidence that kit gave me was brilliant. Ask Lee what he thinks also, he has driven just about every setup there is.

Thanks Jamie .

Personally I hated the Tein mono flex if you want a good coilover go for Nitron they will be built to your specification and I can't recommend them enough. You also can't ignore the CW setup!

Anyone fitted the Nitron stuff here I just checked and they look superb quality. The R3 look very tempting.

The Whifbitz TA cars used them.

The nitron stuff more for track orientated cars? I have to admit the R1 Nitron look superb quality.

As they are adjustable in bump and rebound over a wide range (and adjustable for slow speed bump as well, on the triple adjustable models) they can be tailored for limousine ride to track set up, given the correct spring rates. If the stock adjustment range of the valving isn't adequate they will do a custom valving for you, as I do with Bilsteins. But if you intend dropping the car very low you might as well put some cheap Chinese stuff on it, as good dampers will be wasted, it'll still handle like a dog

After seeing the quality on the Nitron R1 I think il probably go down this route, cheers guys for the advice input.

I have a set if nitrons on my supra jazz! I had them built for road use and they are superb. The build quality is amazing and there after sales is top notch well worth every penny! They are not of the shelf items so when you order them give them as much information about your car as you can as they will be built specifically for your supra, think there is about a 3 week waiting for them to be built but well worth it.

If I'm honest I would go for the R1 setup as they are more suited to the road that's what I have, think the R3 will be a bit over kill for anything less then on the track

They do, or certainly did do, two spring options. Standard and Eibach. the standard ones are probably made by Faulkener. They will be more than adequate for your needs, there's no need to pay extra for the expensive Eibachs.

Thanks guys never heard of this brand before wish I had as the titanium finish and quality looks superb, unlike my hks hypermax III that have corroded for something I hardly driven and used in the rain!

I have left it with my tuner he will customise them accordingly and I think R1 is more suited for my needs .

What do these cost for a full set?

Sounds great from your experience they look very professional and quality from the pictures.
