C'mon why ?

Is there a different feature that warrants such a change?

Thy should offer some adapter or something for the faithful owners of the previous systems.

Please see if there is any possibility for retro-fit.



Well cancel my order for now.
lol, how about the reason to make more money off us? just kidding. i would like to know the reason why as well, i am pretty surprised to learn this

Obviously, the new users will love it and won't care. Those of us who already have EDFC (and installed) will feel the pain more.
and now, to people who don't have edfc like me, i think we are at advantage

1) old edfc flood later and we could get some at a bargain, or
2) get new coilovers without penalty on getting rid of old edfc

nah let's not be hopeless so soon, we still need to figure if it's as tough as the motor, of if it's as easy as the bolt. with you glen, everything can fit

i personally i wonder if it has to do with the amount of "turns" to adjust the stiffness, where in the new tein cs systems (or other related new setups), the number of turns to amount the "16 clicks" are different

Steve,
TEIN has great products, but their internal communciation and the information that is passed on to their customers and vendors SUCKS!!!!!!!

How many people have I spoken with and each supposedly TEIN rep that they talk to tells them a different story.

Please look into this with due diligence to get valid confirmation.

Thanks ! ! !

Crap... Missed this thread. I knew they were coming out with a new line (which is why I got mine dirt cheap) but didn't think they would come out this quick.

But still happy with my new 'old' CS setup. I know asthetics don't matter, but I think the gold is better

so can someone rub it in how much better the new ones are? the microvalve bs sounds good, but its always better to hear from fellow CL folks their impressions of new vs old.
