For the people out there who have an Tein EDFC unit, can I ask were abouts did you mount the actually device in the cabin of your car ?

The unit looks like this.

Center console - in the cooler box. Attached it to the front wall of the box.

Does that make sense?

Hang on, does that come with the Tein Type Flex coilovers that PHAT is selling? or can you buy the Unit to work with them seperately or something?
If so...my wallet is going to be looking very empty for the next few months.

It is an extra. Includes 4 stepper motors which attach to the adjuster on each of the struts and the display/controller pictured in the top post. Price? You'd better ask Phat :wink:

Do you have a pic of yours ?

I was thinking also to install it in the Cubby display but mine cubby is playing up and I would have to change it in the near future.

Hey Harry,

Here's a pic for ya. :wink:

I also thought about the top cubby, but... a) running the wire up there was a pain, b) you don't use it a lot (I use mine a fair bit though), c) I use the cubby for my sunnies - they don't fit if the EDFC went in there...

Cheers

I have decided to install the unit in my Cubby display hold. At the moment it is not being used for anything and the fitment was perfect.

I'll take a few shots when she is done.

Alright here are a few shots of how the unit looks.

After taking a few shots I have change the setting to 32 mode, I programmed personal settings to my liking of the stiffness, and change the brightness and volume aswell.

Great little unit.

What happens if you want to install the STI Strut brace, would it still fit over those?
Guess you would just have to put the cable through the ring of it first.

I've dreamed of having this setup since getting the GT Wagon. Had a specB prior and never really liked the constant bone jarring ride of the B kit.

How much for the coilovers and EDFC all up (parts and labour)?
