[Civic X News]

Would you be interested in a set of TEIN coilovers for your new Civic? Well they need your help.

We spoke with TEIN USA earlier today about the potential availability of parts for the new Civic. They are most certainly cooking something up, but they can't begin development work until they get their hands on a car.

This is where you come in.

TEIN needs a 2016 Civic for 3-5 days before they can begin developing anything of substance for the 2016. They are willing to offer compensation if you'll drop your car off with them.

TEIN USA HQ is located in the Los Angeles area, anyone around those parts feel free to drop them a line or send us a PM and we can put you in touch with our contact there.

TEIN USA, Inc.
9798 Firestone Blvd.
Downey, CA 90241

Telephone: 562-861-9161

UPDATE: TEIN asks for those interested to fill out a Test Vehicle Application available here.

By compensation do they mean a free set of coilovers?

Usually that means the "test set" on your car are yours to keep. They won't be as polished or reliable as the production version. Nor will they come with a warranty. But an 800-1K suspension for 3-5 days of your time isn't a bad trade-off.

[Smartie]
