Details:
Tein Street Basis Z coilovers are the latest in the Tein coilover lineup. Tein has simplified their manufacturing process and were able to significantly reduce prices on their popular coilovers without sacrificing quality and craftsmanship.
The Street Basis Z is strictly a ride height adjustable kit. This makes it a perfect setup for the daily driver looking for an increase in handling performance without compromising comfort for everyday use.
For many people considering a lowering spring and performance shock absorber combination, the Street Basis Z makes even more sense as Tein selects appropriate spring rates and valves the dampers to match. No guesswork on the end-users part in trying to match one brand of springs to another brand of shock absorbers. The added height adjustment feature allows the end-user the ability to adjust ride height to their preference, something that lowering springs lack.
Features
Thread-Type Ride Height Adjustment: The ride height can be adjusted by moving the lower spring seat up or down. Characteristic of this system are its simple structure and ease of use.
Twin-Tube System: Compared to the regular mono-tube system, twin-tube attains longer stroke with a smaller repulsive force, resulting in high ride comfort. You can negotiate gaps and bumps steadily on rough roads, meaning a smooth ride at low speed and stability at high speed.
Uses OE Mounts: STREET ADVANCE Z and STREET BASIS Z use the vehicle's original upper mounts (not included in our product kit).
Optimal Dust Boot: Thanks to its smooth compression and high durability, the dust boot guards the piston rod from damage, and keeps foreign material out of the shock absorber. (Some vehicles use their OE dust boots)
No-Sag Spring: Cold formed with SAE9254 steel (minimum tensile strength 200 kgf/mm2), our springs are outstandingly sag-proof and boast extreme resiliency. Our high-quality springs can be used without worries, in any conditions.
High-Performance Damper Oil: Since TEIN's maintains a stable viscosity, sustaining smooth stroke and reliable damping force in a variety of circumstances. Due to excellent anti-foaming properties, it's resistant to cavitation (bubble forming). Furthermore, the damper oil keeps up its superior performance long-term, because it's resistant to deterioration over time.
Rust-Proofing: A bright TEIN-green powder paint is used on the shock absorber's shell case. Our powder coating technique produces an extremely strong and durable barrier. Superior durability and corrosion resistance are achieved by TEIN's patented coating method, which uses 2 layers of anti-rust paint on a blasted surface.
Special Surface Treatment 'ZT Coating': Our unique ZT Coating surface treatment on the ride height adjustment thread further enhances its corrosion resistance. TEIN shock absorbers are amazingly rustproof.
Damping Force Adjustment: Modify ride comfort and handling according to your preference, changing the properties of the shock absorber with the adjustment dial.
