Tein Flex Coilovers

Tein is testing out the Super Street and Flex that they took measurements on a few months back. I dropped it off on Monday and picking up tomorrow. I also had them install EDFC. I will post pictures and reviews when I get and drive for a day

If its a perfect fit, then they will go into production about one month later!

UPDATE:

Alright guys, here are the pics and details!

My current set up is with the dampeners set to 12 (10 is recommended) and the current drop from the stock height is 40mm in the front and 45mm in the rear. Tein measured the ride height of a vehicle using the distance from the center of the rim straight up to the fender. The stock ride height in the front is 390mm and the rear is 380. The maximum that the Flex Dampers can be lifted to is approximately 397mm in the front and 353 mm in the rear. The minimum that the dampers can by dropped is approximately 329mm in the front and 310mm in the rear. The Front has a total of +7mm to -61mm from stock. The Rear has a total -27mm to -70mm from stock.

Spring rates are 14kg front and 12kg rear.

The release date is not completely set in stone but we are expecting the release around May or June. I am not exactly sure on the price either but it will be approximately $2,200.

Going the 17th meet if anyone wants a ride or what not.

Here are some of the pics with EDFC. Will post pics of the EDFC when I finish the install of it.

EDFC allows for control of the dampening system from inside the car instead of cranking from the outside. It attached motors to the coilovers...

OMG, I can not wait to post pics and go to the next car meet. THESE ARE AMAZING!!!! I'm going to try to finish wiring the EDFC this weekend! It's stiffer than I thought, but I can always play around with the adjustments. This is the twin tube coilovers. The tech is going to email me all the specs. They have me lowered 35mm from stock and told me these should be for sale in about 1 month. Anyone in the OC, let me know and I'll take rides
