tein type flex???

anybody heard of it??

this guy from hk has it.
hk guy

what impressed me the most was what he had with it, that EDFC device.... i think thats what its called [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
im guessing it electronically adjusts the height of the car??? or does it just tell you the height of the car??
well, nonetheless, i've never seen that.

EDIT: to think of it, i think the device comes with the tein type flex product.......


does anybody know if you can add that device to any coilovers?
currently, im looking to purchasing the tein ss coilover, i sort of what that EDFC magigy device. haha.


what surprised me that most is that when i went to search for this product, they didnt make it for our cars.... well, it did, but its meant for civic Si 2003 and up..... is that referring to the hatchback? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

trust me, it's not worth it to fly there and buy the parts u want and bring back here. cuz u will get rape on duty taxes and some other fees and when u added up all the fees, it's going to be the same here or maybe more expensive.

The TEIN EDFC (Electronic Dampening Force Controller) can be added to most, if not all of the TEIN coilovers. It is a controller with 4 individual motor devices you place at the top of the strut. Instead of you going to each of the 4 corners with a little flat head to adjust your ride stiffness, you just punch it into the controller and it turns all of them for you. It does not do height, only dampening. Hope that helps....

the edfc only works with the type flex suspension, and no it does not make your car dance, all it does is adjust the dampening of your shox, you can have them nice and stiff for racing, or nice and soft so your wife doesn't bitch at every bump in the road. all this at the touch of a button, with three preset levels. according to tein the efdc will not work with any other of there suspensions, only the type flex
