Default Tein question

Just wondering...i've been talking to Tein and they have offered me a Super Racing coilover for the Z. The only question I'm running into that they haven't answered is, Why does this system require 2 EDFC systems???
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
-Travis

SRC shouldn't be available until the end of the year. I'm testing their MonoFlex right now which will be in production late fall.

The SRC is their competition coilover for the 350Z. It is double adjustable meaning you can adjust compression and rebound of the shock damping separately. In order to do this by remote 2 EDFC units will be required, 1 for compression and 1 for rebound.

They are very stiff...not recommended for street use.

Tein sure seem's to do it's best to market away from me. CS is too soft, Flex is too stiff, Super Racing has the specs I want, but is valved and sprung where I don't want. I already know their shop price per coilover to revalve, oh well I'm sure it will be great for those that need that much spring and dampning.

Ah you're right...Tein USA isn't going to change the specs for US market for the SRC unlike the Flex.

Did you ask them about the Drift Spec suspension and when it will be available?
