Since i sold my Tein SRC a while back, the monoflex just weren't cutting it. I decided to try out some RA's with 14K swift springs (swifts not pictured). The RA's felt much nicer than the monoflex, but i couldn't achieve my usual ride height since the RA's don't allow ride height adjustability independent of preload. To get as low as i wanted, i had to remove the helper springs, which resulted in springs rattling around on bumps and having them constantly unseated when the car is jacked up. I work on my car a lot so this would have been annoying over an extended period of time.
Ended up selling the RA's when a used set of Tein SRC popped up on the forums. It's nice to be back on SRC's. Looks like the previous owner either swapped out the 16K springs or special ordered springs. (I found out Tein isn't selling these with 16K standard anymore, the springs are sold separately so you order what you want). What i found out is the rears have 18K springs and i have no idea about the fronts because there's no markings on them. But the ride isn't bad at all for the streets, surprisingly.
here's an update on my integra too, JDM HID front end. Took me around 18hrs to do this time. Being the 2nd time i did the front end myself, i knew i wanted to do it right, making sure every panel fit perfectly and even soldered and shrink tubed each and every wire (as opposed to using connectors). Going to paint this Wednesday.
