Don't ask me where I got these pics, but I just want to FINALLY clear the air on all the mis-information/rumor/guessing that has been going on around the forums, about whether the NEW TEIN CS will mate with the original EDFC motors.

I'm not blaming any particualr source for this confusion, but let's just say you should "TRUST NO ONE" including some of the TEIN reps.

So here it is. Anyone with an existing EDFC can compare the PN on this motor to their own and verify for themselves if what they have is compatible.

Here's the whole coilover body with the motor assembly installed.

Finally the current PN of the new CS coilover.

The motors were not only installed, they were connected to the EDFC and electrically adjusted up and down to several of the 16 possible settings. "They work"


I don't have any more details than what you can glean from these "spy" photos. I'd say the evidence here is enough to say that anyone who sees this thread can "offically" claim that they have carnal knowledge of the NEW TEIN CS "mating" with the original EDFC motor.


Nuff said !

How are these "New CS" Teins supposed to compare to the regular Tein Flex models as far as ride quality and stiffness..?

The stock number on the Tein above, is that for the 1998-2005 GS 300/400/430? I just talked to a sale rep and he gave me a different number. ????

Also, does anyone know if the newer EDFC(Black box) would work with the Tein CST. If so, what's the part # for the new EDFC. This is all for a 1998 GS 300. Thanks.
