Nope, I looked, it aint in there. If it is, then it is not included in the Camber Plate section anyways, which is where it should be. (Yes, the thread is actually so long, that sometimes I cannot remember exactly what all is in there.)

I'm glad you did not wait for an update, the updates follow the intelligent new threads. Like this one. Where new information is gathered up, categorized, and assimilated into The Suspension Thread. It is like the Borg Collective of threads, resistance is futile.

Brent, it seems like you have something going there with the stock strut mount theory

Thank gawd we have suspension gurus, folks who really know their sh*t, otherwise I would have no one to quote.

Well, I tell you what guys, I have a set of Tein SS coilovers on my Pulsar and I have a set of AGX/hyperco going on my brother's car this spring. If no one has figured out the Tein camber plate issue, I will personally test it out.

I just did the Tein pillowball mounts on stock springs / dampers "experiment" on a B14. I can confirm that yes, Tein pillowballs do fit on stock replacement springs and dampers.

Installation is pretty straightforward. Up front, it goes together pretty much as normal. The only difference is that you use the stock upper spring mount instead of the Tein supplied one (the Tein-supplied collar that comes with it fits right over the big hole in the spring seat). The rear mounts replaces the stock rear mounts in their entirety.

Be advised though, that the front mounts are slightly taller than the stockers. If you install these on stock-replacement springs, your front ride height will go up by a little over 1/2". Not sure how big a deal that is for you guys, but I'll throw that out there just in case.

YOU MEAN YOU WERE ABLE TO FIND REAR TEIN PBs ??????

Please, share with us the source, model, price.... I have never ever ever found them from a dealer or wherever (excluding used and eBay) since 1999 !!!!

But I have a B13 so of course if you mean B14 rears I will clear the CAPS...

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I am working with a B14. I should probably go back and put that in there.

TEIN WILL work B14 then for camber adjustment on stock style suspension.... ie... hyproco / roadmagnet


.... confirmed, plausible or busted?

Confirmed. My B14 is on stock springs, stock dampers, and Tein pillowballs front and rear right now.

Caveats are:

1. It raises the front end a little
2. The rear makes clunking noises when going over bumps (probably because I have no rubber isolaters anywhere back there).

Allllllrighty then I have some cash, I am planning on really only getting some fronts but should I get rears as the dead alxe in back puts a stiffy on that.

BUT I have seen a few ppl breaking their shocks after geting hypercos/RM's.... maybe I should.... NOW to search where to get them unless someone knows off hand. Thanks again!!!

You want the Tein mounts? I got my whole TEIN SS set up, F&R mounts and rear sway bar from HPautoworks. Good people.
