The Tein Super Racing Coilover was developed from actual racing competitions. They were able to design a fully adjustable dampening system that can be adapted to any track or weather condition. These dampers feature a full length adjustment system that allow shock length and preload to be adjusted separately. Compression and rebound damping are independently adjustable to enable the end user to fine tune their suspension to fit their driving and the track.
While keeping quality and features, uncompromised, Tein has integrated camber and caster adjustment into their pillowball mounts for strut type vehicles. External Reservoirs SA Type Dampers allow for additional oil capacity while keeping oil temperatures down.
Spring rates and shock valving were derived from many years of motorsports support, to provide the ultimate damper for competition. Designed and tested for circuit use by advanced and professional drivers who are seeking complete damper tuning capability.
Coilover Break Down
A. Upper Mount - Pillow upper mount is set in each model for controlling the compliance, for realization of direct driving feel and handling incomparable with the original one.
B. Mono-Tube Structure - Mono-tube shell case is adopted to enable very fine control of the machine and aggressive yet detailed communication with the road surface. It generates and maintains very stable damping force, which even stands the intensive and repeated runs on the circuit, reacting to the tiniest data from the road surface.
C. Full-Length Adjustment Function - Full-length adjustment system with movable lower bracket has been adopted, which enables the separate adjustment of the ride-height and pre-load.
D. Separate Compression and Rebound Damping Force Adjustability - For finer settings, total of 256 different kinds of damping force settings (16 levels for compression x 16 levels for rebound) are available, by adding the systems both at base valve and piston rod. Use of specially shaped needle valve enables linear damping force adjustment at each and every 16 levels.
E. Rust-Proofing - All threading parts are coated with specially formulated Fluorine, to prevent adherence and rust. Electroless nickel plating combined with clear painting is applied to lower brackets.
*Strut type only.
F. Inverted Shell Case for Strut Type - Inverted steel shell case is used for strut types, for which the side rigidity is inevitable. Linear damping force, which is one of the advantages of mono-tube system, is just as same as the regular shell case.
G. Aluminum Shell Case - Light weight aluminum shell case is used for wishbone and/or multi-link type suspension, for superior heat liberation. Furthermore, the surface is treated with specially formulated hard black Alumite for improved durability.
H. Upper Seat - Upper spring seat is used for wishbone and/or multi-link type to move springs and dampers coaxially. This enables springs to stroke at proper rates without twisting, and dampers to stroke smoother.
I. External Reservoir swivel Tank - External tank mounted at the bottom of shell case turns in the direction of thrust, for finer full-length adjustment.
J. Conical Spring Washer- With existing full-length adjustable dampers, various vibration stresses might cause bracket lock to loosen in rare occasions. SUPER RACING has 'Conical Spring Washer' inserted between a bracket lock and a lower bracket, to effectively prevent loosening of a bracket lock even when circuit-driving intensively.
* Wishbone/Multi-link Type Only.
