LOL that looks like a Tein EDFC to me. Allows you to adjust your Tein coilovers from inside the cockpit.

Its a EDFC for your Tein Coilovers. It will adjust the settings on your coilovers just play around with it till you find a setting you like.

0 being the stiffest and 15 being the softest.

I have my fronts at 8 and rears at 12 for normal daily driving.

yea it the description when i bought it, it said:
  • Tein Suspension System
  • Self Damping System
and this was coming from a dealer so, i doubt he knew the names for all the stuff.

Volk GTS=$3k HKS exhaust= $1k Tein coilovers with EDFC=$1,500.00 Getting a clean Z for a damn good price and not knowing the parts on it before you buy it and lucking out on getting quality parts instead of a POS= Priceless (well in your case $13k) Enjoy it!!!!!
