Tein Coilover Help

EDFC just moves the same controller, but electronically instead of physically (manually with your hands). The firmness/rebound of the shocks is modified either electronically or physically. The ride height can only be adjusted via the nuts on the shock absorber itself.

Ah, awesome! Thanks for the clarification Keith  If I raise the car a bit, that should lighten up the steering a little too shouldn't it? It's quite firm at the moment.

a tiny bit... that might be another thing to look into - the power steering system.

Awesome haha. Thanks heaps

You adjust the threaded collars. Its just like a dirt bike rear shock. You dont change the spring rate only the preload. the dampening is adjusted with the clickers. We have ours set on the softest for the street as we have the race series.

 

If you change ride height you will need a wheel align after.

Thanks Arron! I might get this all done when I put the new wheels and tyres on. Surely a tyre shop could slightly adjust it for me?

[k31th]

you'd hope that a tyre shop would be able to help you

Make sure that once you set the height you get a decent front and rear alignment. (not all shops are equal)

 

Then play with the dampening.

This is the ride height. Not too low

 

 

 

BA F6 is lower

I've just found out yesterday that the controller at least turns out. All the buttons light up, but all 3 presents are 'red' and not 'green', and on the display it says 'F-EA and R 00'. Anyone got any idea what this means? I would imagine the F is front and normally would be numbers and the R is rear and the same.
