local socal member with tein flex

hi i was wondering if anyone is kinda enough to give me a ride in their g with the tein flex setup. i've been looking into this and want to see how much stiffer it is compared to my Tanabe DF210 springs. My DF210s are just too low in the front and scraping everywhere. i'm free this thursday (tomorrow) and i'll be at street image getting an install (from 1pm-???). please let me know if you can help. Thanks.

-Alex

I have Tein Flex w/EDFC but unfortunately my car is in the shop until next Saturday. If you could wait until then, I wouldn't mind. I also had Tanabe DF210's and got ride of them because they were too low. Depending on what setting you have them on, the Tein Flex range from pretty comparable to a lot stiffer. I love my coils though. I will never do just springs again. The difference between springs and coils is like night and day.

tein basics are already pretty stiff, imo. tein flex on its softest setting is way too stiff for me.

*waiting for a smart@$$ reply from hexx* LOL

How do you like the EDFC? Worth the extra moolah? I may try to convince you to give me a ride sometime, once I have the money to consider coilovers....

I think it's definitely worth the money. The convenience of being able to change the dampening on the fly as opposed to doing it individually and manually makes it worth it to me. Just save up and go for it bro. It will be worth it.
