thanks...

Just used 1 liter last night ... that's with the OEM brembo calipers which hold a bit more fluid than the non-brembo's.

I ordered 1 liter of ATE Super Blue and 1 liter of ATE Typ 200 from raceshopper.com ... then you can alternate colors when you flush again. Both fluids are exactly the same except for color.

Reading your sig, and saw that you got the TEIN EDFC installed. Last time I checked, TEIN did not support EDFC for the G35 due to insufficient space for the servos. Did you do some custom cutting to get the servos to fit or has TEIN redesigned their EDFC to fit more cars?

Thanks!

The EDFC system has worked with all Tein coilovers except for the Basic's ever since their inception. It works with the Flex and the CS.

I think you misread my question. I know the EDFC system works with the Flex and CS coilovers. What I meant was that last time I checked their compatibility matrix, the G35 was not listed as being supported. This is the additional servomechanical equipment and control unit that bolts on the coilovers to provide electronically controlled ride height adjustments from the dash. I guess I'll check the matrix again.

I think you need to reread my answer. The EDFC has worked on the G35's Flex and CS lines since they were created for our cars. Many people on this forum are running with EDFC on their G35's.

Also, it is NOT to control ride height adjustments, but to control the dampening settings.
