TEIN TYPE AND STREET FLEX DAMPER SYSTEMS FOR THE BRZ
TEIN TYPE FLEX
TEIN has used its years of experience in various motor sports to produce a kit that provides the ultimate balance between comfort and performance. Developed for drivers seeking an aggressive coilover that can be used daily, and provide all the adjustments needed for circuit use. The FLEX damper Kit features the latest technology for all drivers who are seeking performance, and adjustability, while not giving up all ride comfort. We have incorporated separate spring perch height, and shell case length adjustment, which allows the suspension to retain more stroke and allows for more suspension tuning. The FLEX damper kit includes pillow ball upper mounts, which increase steering response; 16 levels of damping force adjustment, and is compatible with the EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) for added convenience and adjustability.
Additional Features:
• Steel Construction
• Twin Tube internal construction
• Ride Height adjustable via threaded body and spring seats
• 16 way adjustable dampers, compression and rebound combined
• Pillow ball upper mounts for increased steering feel
• Upper camber adjustment on front for strut type vehicles
• Larger piston diameter for strut type front and rear (22mm)
• EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) compatible
• Powder coated brackets with Teflon coated shock body for heavy duty rust prevention
• 1-year Manufacturers Defect Warranty
TEIN STREET FLEX

STASIS TREATMENT TO THE AUDI A7
In addition to the exhaust system which was covered yesterday, a suspension package was also installed tonight on the Audi A7. The STaSIS package included a set of touring lowering springs and a rear sway-bar.
Notes:
Suspension: Responsive and Refined – STaSIS carefully balances the interdependent systems of springs, sway bars, and dampers with ride height and alignment, drastically improving grip without sacrificing comfort.
Our Touring suspensions lower your stance for better weight transfer while maintaining the factory Drive Select functionality. We’ve engineered an increased spring rate to improve your car’s response, and high-performance roll bars for added corning group, giving you an introduction to the exotic performance experience. Our Street Sport suspensions, available for some models, add customizability, allowing you to adjust your ride height to meet your personal needs.
Our Challenge suspensions go a step further, unleashing your car’s ultimate potential. We use Ohlins SL coil-over technology and STaSIS double digressive valving for factory-level ride comfort with competition-level response to driver inputs, This suspension uses increased spring rates and anti-roll bars to improve driver response and reduce body roll. For the extreme enthusiast, we offer Motorsports suspensions for some models, giving you the ultimate in customization capability.
SUSPENSION SYSTEM FROM NOVITEC FOR THE FIAT 500
Today we look at the Novitec coilover system for the Fiat 500, please note that this kit is design for the European market and will not directly fit the North American model. In order to have this properly installed, we had to redesign and CNC new hardware for this kit.
HONDA ODYSSEY ON H&R LOWERING SPORT SPRINGS
Information from H&R;
Sport Spring kits are H&R’s number one selling product. Enhance the look of your vehicle with a reduced fender well gap. H&R Sport Springs lower the vehicle center of gravity and reduce body roll for better handling. The progressive spring rate design provides superb ride quality and comfort. A lower wind resistance signature will make the vehicle more streamlined and improve gas mileage. If you are only looking to improve one part of your vehicle’s suspension, you cannot go wrong with installing Sport Springs. Fun to drive, H&R Sport Springs are the number one upgrade for your vehicle.
LEDA SYSTEM INSTALL ON THE INTEGRALE EVO
The superior suspension setup consisting of Koni Yellows with Eibach springs were taken out of the Integrale Evo a couple nights ago, from the car to it’s final resting place, the trash bin. For it’s replacement the Evo was given a brand new set of custom made 24-way adjustable bound and rebound Leda coilovers paired to some Eibach springs.
Because spending money on expensive pretty lug nuts are a must, extended studs were installed to the front and rear hubs, replacing the traditional European concept of using wheel bolts.
