susp is no where near finished

moving onto the engine after the susp is set up though.

Engine out for new gaskets, bearings, sump baffle, gt2860-5 turbos.

quite cool being able to adjust your suspension at the press of a few bottons though.

Hear the wee motors whirring away. Feck knows if it all works properly, cant really tell the difference in dampning with the small journies ive done so far

That's cool.

Is the EDFC stuff extra money? and does it fit all the TEIN stuff, or just specific types?

the two new controllers (silver with green LED's) adjust the Compression, and Rebound of the suspension.

Like you might do on your Spax/Avo etc with a wee knob on the top mount.

The motor on the top of the strut adjusts compression
The motor on the bottom/reservoirs adjusts the rebound.

Currently have the contollers set to 16 levels of each, but i believe it can be tuned more using 32... so like half clicks :S

so one box does the compression and the other does the rebound...
I take it when you adjust the front...it adjusts both sides and vice versa, yeah?

Fully ace...

How quick do the motors adjust? Can they be done whilst on the track?

The use of green cable ties in as many places as possible is the best part of the car..

takes about 2 secs for the motors to adjust from 16 to 0 when using presets. And a bout 1 click per second when adjusting it on the fly. Its not something i'm going to be too worried about adjusting coming into a corner on brakes.

Green cable ties rule. I'm out of wee ones though, so had to use some black uns

Slicks fitted to rims
