Lowest setting, it grips hard, harder than stock, no bounce. But not as hard as stiffest, of course. And you should see the braking with these dampers. Very nice, straight with no leaning foward. I am very happy with the Flex.

I have one question: Where did you do the install? I am thinking about doing the same but I just can’t find any decent shops around where I live.

Thanks,

I got these put in by Andrew Rubio. They have a shop right next to the Westbury Nissan service center. He did it for my in a day. Very happy with his work, and if there ever was a problem, he would fix it without any questions. They are located at
200 Charlotte Ave.
Westbury, NY 11590

Right now its called NRC motor sports. But they are looking to change their name.
Give Andrew an email if you want
andrewrubio@pipeline.com
He will gladly answer all your questions. He is a great guy too, he busted his *** to get this car back to me as quick as he could.

Out of curiousity, has anyone weighed the Tein Flex coilovers and compared them to the OEM spring / shock weight? How heavy is the EDFC system?

how it works out
when you finish
the install.

Did you have to
alter the car
in any way to
make the EFDC
fit?

And does the new
setup help to
alleviate the
bouncy ride
somewhat.

EDFC was put into the Nav compartment, but the rubber had to be taken out of the compartment, also they had to cut a little bit of the back so the terminals could fit into it, without that the EDFC will not fit. The EDFC lines were put through the rear strut tower brace, didn't need to cut any holes, came out through the holes on top of the brace.
