Looking for coil over springs

[dinoracer]

Doing a little tweaking of the setup (Tein Flex). Looking for a pair of 6kg 2-3/4" (70 mm)ID x 7" (170 mm) tall springs. Could also use a set of 9kg 70 mm x 170 mm for the front.

Anyone got these hanging around, or local source I can pick some up from before this weekend?

Thanks

I don 't have exactly what you're looking for, but I do have a pair of 7" 300 pound Eibach springs (about 5.4 kg) that used to be in the rear of my Miata. If you think that's close enough, let me know.

[dinoracer]

Dave- Thanks, but if they are the "standard' Eibach, they are likely 2.5" ID ( 60 mm); the Tein coilovers use slightly bigger 2.75" ID ( 70mm) coils, and thus don't fit.

I have 2 Tein springs 6kg/mm tein 70 X 200 (not 170mm)...7 3/4" tall.

Thanks Paul, I should be able to make them work. How much do you want for them, and when can you ship them? I'm try to put them before my corner-weighting appointment this weekend...


thanks tom

Tom, I'll ship them this afternoon. Just cover shipping costs and I'll be glad to pass these on.

Just give me a call to arrange shipment.

Thanks Paul!

PM me with the Shipping, I'll send it in cash or local microbrew, your choice

This a great club, isn't it?

This a great club, isn't it?

PM sent... and yes this is a great club! See you at the track sometime later this year.

I'm getting a feeling the Miata won't be ready for the corner weighting Saturday.?????

Au contraire. Springs arrived today, will be in tomorrow, I'll see you Saturday!

[dinoracer]

Alas, the springs didn't fit. The Tein folks apparently make smaller ID springs too. Still looking for 2.75" (70mm) ID springs, but not such a rush now, since the setup isn't going to change until at least July now. Thanks Tom

Summit racing is your friend; http://www.summitracing.com/search/Part ... er+springs

[dinoracer]

Summit and I are well acquainted

They're not my friend on these. They have plenty of coil-over springs, but not this 70mm ID size. I can mail order them from another source or three, but I start here first since we all have crap like this lying around and it's better for the planet to re-use and recycle

Thanks for the link.

My H&R coilovers spec a 70mm coil,but I can use the 2.625" ID springs from Summit on them with no issues. Maybe your Teins could too? Dunno..just trying to help..
