TEIN specifies 6 kgf\/mm front and 6 kgf\/mm rear spring rates for this application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRX1 is TEIN's coilover for minivans and MPVs, where comfort for passengers matters as much as a lower stance. It uses twin-tube dampers with full-length height adjustment, a 16-level adjuster and TEIN's Hydraulic Bump Stopper (H.B.S.), which cushions the end of the stroke when the car is lowered and fully loaded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe damper bodies get TEIN's two-layer powder coat, and the height-adjustment threads are protected by TEIN's low-friction ZTP coating, which resists rust and stone chips and helps stop the spring seats seizing. TEIN springs are cold-formed from SAE9254 spring steel and powder coated, and TEIN designs them to resist sagging over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDamper type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Twin-tube, gas and oil, with H.B.S.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight adjustment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-length (case-length) adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDamping adjustment:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16 levels (compression and rebound together)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring rate, front:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 kgf\/mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpring rate, rear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 kgf\/mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRide height as supplied, front:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 25-30 mm lower than standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRide height as supplied, rear:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 25-30 mm lower than standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTEIN recommended height range, front:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 to 40 mm below standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTEIN recommended height range, rear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 to 40 mm below standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEDFC motor kit:\u003c\/strong\u003e EDK05-12140 (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop mounts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vehicle-specific top mounts included (rubber or pillow-ball)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e VSQ54-M1SS4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpring rates and ride heights are TEIN's application data.

Set the ride height on the bench by screwing the damper body in or out of its lower bracket, then fine-tune on the car. TEIN pre-tightens the lower bracket lock rings only, so they must be fully tightened at fitting and checked regularly. Never shorten the body beyond TEIN's stated range. Tighten the top nut with a torque wrench while holding the piston rod on its flats; over-tightening can damage the adjuster. Leave suspension arm bolts loose until the car is back on its wheels, then torque them at normal ride height so the bushes aren't preloaded. TEIN advises lowering by no more than 30-40 mm to start with, keeping the front level with or 5-10 mm lower than the rear. Let the springs settle for a few days, recheck the height and lock rings, then have a full four-wheel alignment done. Fitting needs spring compressors (where strut assemblies are rebuilt), a torque wrench and a good understanding of the car's suspension. We recommend professional fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle-specific notes from TEIN:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear: the interior trim must be cut or removed to avoid interference.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUpgrade Further\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd a TEIN EDFC5 controller with motor kit EDK05-12140 to adjust damping from the driver's seat. Contact us for pricing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this kit fit my Toyota GT86 ZN?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit (TEIN part VSQ54-M1SS4) is listed for the models in the Fitment section above. Check your chassis code, year and trim against that list, along with any notes under it. If you're unsure, send us your registration or VIN before ordering and we'll confirm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow low will my Toyota GT86 ZN go?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs supplied, TEIN's data puts the car approx. 25-30 mm lower than standard at the front and approx. 25-30 mm lower than standard at the rear. TEIN recommends staying within 15 to 40 mm below standard at the front and 15 to 40 mm below standard at the rear. Wheels, tyres and the car's condition all affect the final height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I adjust the damping?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The 16-level adjuster changes compression and rebound together: 0 is the stiffest setting and 16 the softest. Start from TEIN's recommended setting and change it a few clicks at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes it work with TEIN EDFC?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. You'll need TEIN's EDFC5 controller kit plus motor kit EDK05-12140 for this car, both sold separately. EDFC lets you change damping from inside the car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre top mounts included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Vehicle-specific top mounts are included in the kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a wheel alignment after fitting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Changing ride height alters camber and toe, so have a full four-wheel alignment done once the springs have settled and the height is final.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre TEIN coilovers road legal in the UK?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoilovers can be used on UK roads as long as the car stays roadworthy: keep a sensible ride height, enough clearance and correctly aimed headlights. Modifying your suspension should be declared to your insurer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill RX1 still be comfortable with a full car?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat's what RX1 is designed for. The twin-tube dampers are tuned for comfort and the Hydraulic Bump Stopper cushions the end of the stroke when the car is lowered and carrying passengers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat warranty do TEIN coilovers come with?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTEIN UK covers its suspension for 12 months from the date of purchase against defects in materials and workmanship. Keep your invoice, as it's needed for any claim.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58920552235391,"sku":"VSQ54-M1SS4-2","price":1144.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/6251\/6693\/files\/VSHK8-M1AS5-111_5386cfe8-1c77-4cb5-ab70-c48d0f38508f.jpg?v=1792772973","url":"https:\/\/coilovers.co.uk\/products\/tein-rx1-coilovers-toyota-gt86-zn-12-21","provider":"Coilovers.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
