Hey Lude, you're probably right about their workmanship on automech installs. My bro and I installed them. I hear they are pretty good with car audios. I paid $3200 for my RA's, I think that's a steal considering that the distributor in Niagara quoted me $4600. I was considering others but they were too expensive, Mugen $5313 and TODA at $6118. The only other option that was in the same price range with Tein was Spoon at roughly $3600. It was a difficult choice and I hope I made the right one with Tein. I hear they're pretty good. Haven't had a chance to test them out yet. In terms of getting hooked up with a dealer, I would suggest Japanese Automotive for mechanical work but I don't know who would be a decent dealer for parts. The US prices are pretty competitive.

Cheers,

Hey man I'm just looking out for my fellow honda's. Someone mentioned Bell Chan. Oh man. That's another scam place. I just go there to see what's new in rims thats about it. And if your not Asian they'll rape you. OK now for parts I only go to Speedtech. So does all the prelude club. His prices are unbeatable. I mast lots of cash there monthly on parts and at the same time I do my reasearch to see if someone can match him. They can't. I recomend you guys go together there for common parts or GB. Say I recomended you. Kostas with the black lude. Good luck guys on your shopping.

Oh and about Kennedy Hi Fi. Thumbs down and on electonics install. There hasn't been a prelude in the TPC that hasn't gone twice for reinstalling an alarm or a deck. And they say the bring mugen parts. Another scam. King imports them for an arm and a leg and then they charge us for the other arm and leg. If you guys wanna go to Speedtech to get quotes leme know cause I'll be going there next saturday to pick up my sway bar and shocks. Also about suspention. Guys there is no need to go overkill. If you autocross that's ok. But if you spend crazy money on Teins and the S is only gonna see street that's a huge waste of money and they will never see there full potential. You wouldn't be able to see the diference lets say between Koni's and good springs if for street use.

ouzo not ture, koni/whateverspring combo sux. tried them on civic, accord,prelude, and many integras.
either too hard or too soft, too high or too low. cant really fine tune the way i like it.
and one more thing, even if u are asian, u still get ripped off from Bell Chan.
His shop is famous for selling copied body kits as genuine ones, breaking up shit in ur car and claimed u broke it be4hand, one time his mechanic looked @ my friends miata and said wow nice rx7
, broke rims when we were swapping summer tires to winters, the list goes on..
his taiwan made rims speical is my favourite, saying the rims made in japan when u can clearly see the MADE IN THAILAND / TAIWAN .
