COMING SOON NEW TEIN HOODY AND SNAP-BACK CAP

We recently have decided upon the release of a new hoody and Snap-back cap as a replacement to our previous hoody and flame cap which were discontinued.

Many consumers had inquired about the release or re-release of the hoody which had us thinking whether to go ahead consider the re-release or bring out a new design. As for the flame cap, lets just say that it wasnt as popular as out FlexFit caps and kinda needed an upgrade. Both product renderings have not yet been finalized but an idea of what can be expected for both would be shown below.

The release is expected within the next two weeks and is definetely a long awaited for the hoody and unexpected release for the cap. Check our website for updates.

Nissan R35 GT-R Suspension

We’ve already had our popular Super Racing coilover kit available for the R35 GT-R. The TEIN group was quick to jump into the development on that car’s suspension from the day it was released internationally. However, we knew that the sales of the GT-R wouldn’t necessarily take the world over right away. After all, it is a relatively expensive car.

Now in 2014 we’re looking to go back to redeveloping our already race proven setup.

With pre-owned GT-R’s now available at somewhat more reasonable prices, new owners are now able to put some money into enhancing an already well-balanced factory super car. Leave it to us to find a way to improve its suspension, which is what we do anyway!

For this year, we’re working with our good friends at Evasive Motorsports, who have recently acquired a GT-R. We’re pleased to see that they contacted us for suspension assistance. As aforementioned, we were looking to redo the damper valving and possibly spring rates. So it was good timing for us!

While it’s great to be working with Evasive Motorsports on the Super Racing development, we also look to put our newly released and available EDFC Active Pro to work on this car. TEIN Japan has already received praise on this new EDFC offering, with drivers reporting drastic improvement in driving and reduced lap times (one claim of -30 seconds lap time sounded too good to be true, but we’ll take it!). Now we’re looking to get feedback from our North American customers.
