Tein CST damper settings
Anyone else out there with Tein CS/T's that wish to share their damper settings?
I am running 10 in the front and 9 in the rear.
I am contemplating getting the EDFC so it will be easy to setup the suspension how I want it but wondered what others are running.
Cheers
Matt.

I have talked to 2 guys on the 3 gs forum who are running the following 1. 4 all the way around, 2. 7 front and 6 in the rear. Now I know they are little more concerned with ride that performance so these setting may seem a little low. Shock settings are addictive. They provide a solid improvement in cornering ability as the damping increases, btu the tolerance build as time goes on and you keep wanting more and more performance until you rolling around on or near the full hard setting on the shocks.

I always run on 0, 0 settings and i have the EDFC but I hardly change the settings b/c i love the better handling ride. Also I've noticed that if you keep it on the 0, 0 (stiffest) setting your step motors does not twist much on the coilovers. So if you ever get the EDFC remember to keep it on a stiffer setting then you won't have the problem of step motors turning and twisting the wires with them.

I used to have mine 2-4 clicks all around from the softest setting, but it felt like the springs were underdampered and kind of bouncy. It felt like the suspension was unstable at times on bumpy roads. Now I have them set at 8 all around from the softest setting and the ride feels alot tighter and better overall.
The rest of the suspension setup includes:
-Supra front lower control arms
-Daizen steering rack bushings
-Daizen swaybar bushings
-18" wheels w/ 225/40, 255/40 tires

I have almost the same setting as SC300Max.
I find with shock settings any softer that the springs are underdamped.
I really would like to have separate damping and rebound adjustment. Additional rebound adjustment would allow the softer damping adjustments to work better.
