Default Tein EDFC.. on Stance LX Coilovers?!

does anyone know if this will work?

I cant be the only person who has thought to try.. im curious if not only the shaft diameters are similar so the motors will fit, but if the detents for the valve change settings are in the same areas so the motors would know to stop at the right places..

so for such a random post, but Tein cant tell me, and neither can Stance.

Really no need, it is a novely that will get used for the first week. After that you will find a setting and forget about it.

I've been working on an EDFC to Megan racing retrofit. So far I've been able to verify that the inner diameter of the EDFC fits and the thread pitch is compatible. The length of the EDFC shaft was too short so i had to extend it using a cut hex key and an appropriately sized wire coupler with some epoxy resin. Next step is to validate that the total rotations of the EDFC is less then the max of the Megan racing's. I'm not to worried about the rotation step interval, any particular reason for your concern?

Yea..they aren't infinitely variable. Its a set number of degrees between clicks. That educ tells the motors to turn a specific number of degrees per setting..if its nit getting to the right spot on the coilover..its fully pointless.

I once thought about this only because it would convenient for the rear dampers which I have not adjusted since I installed them because of this very fact.

Why not find someone with Tein dampers and have them figure out the degrees between one click, then do the same for your stance?
