Drifting, the real point.....is more about precision control of driving outside of the traction circle....using multiple techniques of manipulation to maneuver while using countersteer......it's not about holding/using maximum (let alone modified) steering angle. Ugh, America did a great job of f*cking up (aka "Americanizing") something requiring time/understanding to achieve precision. Drifting was way more fun, and the community was much tighter when it was about precision....not just "showoff style".

(Pro performance parts advisor here) - one thing to note...the TEINs are their entry level offering from the 'Street' series, which re-use OEM top mounts. That, in my mind at least, is where a huge amount of slop/play can come from along with their softer spring rates. As cheap lows they're probably the only acceptable option that isn't anywhere near a grand...but something higher tier like the Flex Z would've been on MeisterR's Clubrace level. (Not biased, I sell both MeisterR and TEIN coilovers and actually run/have run both personally along with BCs and a few others over the years). Good video lads, great to see someone digging deeper into this "spend money good - save money bad".

The more expensive coil overs will likely come pre-adjusted close to where they need to be, while the cheaper ones would need to be adjusted and are likely setup soft for the street. I'd be interested in how close the middle priced ones could get, to the expensive ones, after adjusting preload, compression, and rebound.
@williamrori1274

The more expensive coilovers come pre-adjusted because they were actually engineered specifically for the platform. Also, adjusting preload isn't a thing on linear rate springs. This is only marketed as a "feature" on cheap quality two piece coilovers like the Tein and Meister R. You won't find preload adjustable on actual engineered race shocks because A. they are using linear rate springs so it doesn't matter if you have .5" of preload or 2" of preload as the effective rate is the same and B. they are one piece shocks

@@BlakeEM That is not what that is on the one piece shocks lol. Let's break it down, the cheap two piece coilovers have separate preload and height adjustment. The former is done by the higher adjuster and locking ring while the height adjustment is done with the lower locking ring. The height on one piece shocks are done ONLY with adjusting the spring perch. Let me be clear - there is no separate preload adjustment on one piece shocks. This is by design as preload is not a thing on linear rate springs. For example: Let's say the spring rate on spring X is 500 lbs/in with no preload. Want to guess what the spring rate on spring X is with 5" of preload? It's a trick question, since it's the same except now you've reduced total spring travel before binding. They aren't on race shocks for a reason.

@@tturi2 In a sentence, you've basically nailed it - these particular TEINs are somewhat out of their comfort zone on track but would be excellent on a slightly uneven B road for the most part; especially if it was the driver's first RWD car. You essentially want to have that car as soft as possible before it gets overly wallowy. For what it's worth too, the TEINs in question here do also have adjustable damping (Street Advance Zs generally do, Street Basis Z don't) - that, in turn, can also help iron out some of the roll, squat and dive.

One thing I've learned from messing with dirt bike suspension. The hardware can be important, but the SETUP is everything. Better hardware enables a good setup, and fewer compromises. But the best hardware in the world, set up wrong for the environment or for the user, can easily be worse than an incredible POS that happens to be right for the job at hand. This is why stock El Cheapo suspension is usually better than coilovers. The factory cut costs of the parts, but they put a lot of work into choosing spring and damping rates.

No, because they literally said the most expensive one took the curbs better despite the higher spring rate, the damping wall still better. And they do offer them with softer springs as well (although I think they removed the very soft options from non-custom orders on NA - NB Xidas because they have now developped the Tecna for street applications). Personnally I'd love to see a comparison between Xida - Tecna - Fox - Öhlins and anything else that would be in a 1500-2500 price range within a close range of spring rates.

Great video. Only thing for me is: how do they stack up for normal road driving? The teins giving body roll means less aggressive damping which you want for roads, but add ARB. If all else equal, less rolly coilovers would just be stiffer damping which would be unusable on the road. Whereas street coilovers like the teins can do both just not as good at each task. Or is that not how it works (I have Tein street basis on my nbfl/mk2.5 mx5 and they're nicer on the road at speedbump scraping height than some stock height cars 😂)

Yes this would have had a profound effect on the handling characteristics, and hence the decision over which was best. You also have to bear in mind (having had a set of Meister-R CRD on my old MX-5), the damping adjustment makes a massive difference, and there are 30+ settings! Ultimately i would suggest a well set up 'mid-range' coilover is better than a poorly set up 'high-end' setup. Personally i'd spent the money on the Meisters, have it 4 wheel aligned and corner weighted and it'll transform it.

i have the tein on both my miata and my e87 bmw, and i love them. had the bilstein b14 before the tein on my bmw. i use it daily, and on some trackdays. at my driving skill and with the rest of the chassis still stock, the b14 were definitely overkill. they were good, but i prefered both the feeling AND comfort from the tein.

Against this belief, better dampers will help you at all driving levels. When it comes to suspension the take away should be that you buy once instead of buying several bad options before arriving at the good option.

But surely this is all to do with the default setup of the springs and dampers of each coilover set? Idk of Tein have much adjustment, but the more expensive ones will probably have more. Surely the only difference is adjustment range and durability?

It's not like Donut invented the comparison video. Besides, original ideas are not a common sight these days.

I agree, the concept obviously is similar which is fine because nobody has the rights to the idea but its everything else too, the narrating, camera work, editing style, commentating, even the damn text style is so similar. The whole intro sequence is like a mirror to one of their hi-lo videos. It's fine doing a similar concept of a video, but when everything else is nearly identical and copied that's where it starts to stray into questionable territory.

@@DKinger - yeah, that was largely the point I was making as well. BUT - Scott and the boys are doing it much much much better than Donut guys have. I recently unsubscribed from Donut as the quality of their videos and content has plummeted recently.

​@@F1FanCanuck Meh I completely disagree. That's anecdotal because they only continue to grow and they also just created a second channel that is looking to outpace this one as well so that's just false.

@@DKinger - sorry, but a personal opinion cannot be false. You may disagree with me, but you can’t say my subjective assessment that this channel is better is false. As for Donut, subs and likes don’t mean the quality has improved. It only means the content is appealing to a larger audience. Quality and popularity are two fundamentally different qualities/criteria by which any content or media may be measured. One does not imply the other, and indeed, the inverse is more often true.

The whole point of coilovers is that they are adjustable, any given set can have a wide range of spring and damper stiffness and even ride height control, my point is that you should be able to get them a lot closer than that if you go out and tune them before running them. The main difference in high and low end comes down to two things, one being durability of course, and the other is damper valve tuning, there are different valve sizes in them which change rebound and compression relative to each other, but not stiffness, however this is not the difference they were feeling, its obvious from the video that the low end ones were tuned very wallowy and loose and the high end ones were tightened up.

Thats not how it works. No matter what you do to those Teins they will never be anywhere near the Xida in handling or ride quality. Spring rates and turning a knob to change dampening mean little if the dampers cant keep up.

Very instructive video, keep up One question, i have a Bmw z3 3.0i and would like new set up with coilovers/dempers but don't want to spend £3k. I do enjoy a sporty sunday blast with mates and that little 3.0L is like a go-kart, but I want more precision when cornering, need the car to be more glued to the tarmac. Running Toyo proxes at mo What would you suggest please? Thank you for your help, Marc

One more thing(amongst many things) to consider e.g. the Clubrace are running stiffer springs compared to the Tein(if I remember it correctly), meaning would be better suited with a lower TW tire (in general). Which could give even more difference in the driving feel and performance between the two.
