s13 Jdm Tein Ha's

Anyone have experience w/ the Tein HAs? I tried looking on Tein's website and they are no longer listed. I'm thinking of purchasing them used from Japan for $400, no shocks blown but they do have some rust, which from what I've read on the forum is pretty normal if you don't clean them every 3-4 mos. They guy I'm talking to also said they are have height but not dampening adjustment...but everything I've read online says they should. The pics I've seen have the pillow mounts and camber plates on them as well. Are they the same model as the Tein Super Streets? Tried searching the suspension sticky FAQ but didn't find what I was looking for.

I'm running Tein HAs and yes they've been discontinued. They're "16 way" adjustable. Mine didn't come with the pillowball mounts/camberplates as those were an add-on option. And I also have the notorious rust problem. Try to get them for cheaper, then rebuild em over here.

Any idea what a rebuild costs? Is that from Tein?

I've got Tein HA's too on my silvia... (it came with Cusco's and i swapped them to Tein)... Quite amazing, can be extremely stiff... Can ajust height and damper (Don't know why but I have 24 ajustment on each wheels instead of 16). I heard they're pretty much like the SS now.
