Hi chaps Been looking out for some coilovers for the fozzy and all roads lead to Rome... Anyone heard of or used these guys before? Pedders SuspensionI have never bought coilovers before so could do with a quick basic "what to look for" when on the hunt. Cheers |

The tein look good but pricey. Will I need camber plates or no need for them?

I'm not sure if they're essential, you may be able to get away with adjustable camber bolts in the struts (you'll probably need them for the Pedders too). There's a used set of Teins with pillowball camber plates for sale on the Forester forums for £600. Looks like he's willing to P/X your old struts too, which should help a little more with the cost. www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f110/sf5-tein-coilovers-forester-specific-415186/ |

I might just bite the bullet and get the teins from camskill. Got mot coming up in march and have a saggy rear end lol. |

You're right about the price, he's not exactly giving them away is he, at least you know where you are if you buy new.
Saggy butt is a very common problem on foresters mine's had one for years, If I ever get round to doing anything about it it'll being going up not down.

These guys made me a set for my old bugeye Scooby. Top quality, excellent customer service. They even made me a set of free top mounts as my kit was a prototype for development and I couldnt find anything that worked. In my experience, highly recommended!
