For the guys that waited with passion for this system, i'm truly sorry it didn't work out.


But the PERFORMANCE difference between Tein and KW...just didn't merit this waste of time...imo

Which is essentially what i've written since the start.

....not seeing the same correlation here....

They've already given free sets to MULTIPLE members here and never once come to try and sell people.

If you beat TEIN in builing a custom EDFC from scratch for our 300s, then I'll order one from you and the suspension from TEIN.

Your word is your word. "All you have in this world is your balls and your word" (scarface). If you tell someone you are going to do something then you are obligated to do it. Rogue was told he would get a CAI for his efforts and end the end they did not honor there word. It seems to correlate fine to me.

We were going to do this with my friend's Charger who has KWs. Now I think we're just going to build it from scratch.
OK, I just did a little reading on Teins website. After reading the install instructions it seems you can change the mode from 16 clicks to 32 clicks, depending on how accurate you want to adjust your dampening force. There are also different size motors corresponding to the different models of coilovers (ie BMW M3, full out race car, 300C, etc.) If we can determine the amount of revolutions (from stiffest to softest) the KW V2 make for our 300's (which I will when I get home) and equivicate that to a corresponding Tein model that has the same amount of revolutions, we can can get a EDFC with that motor in it and all we would have to do is make an adapter for the correct coupling of the piston shaft (aka the rod that you turn to adjust) to the tein unit. This peice would probably have to be a slip on cover to go over the KW shaft, the outside would be threaded and have a top that had included hex screw that comes with the EDFC kit. This would probably have to be spot welded in order to hold, I dont think I would trust a sealent. Besides fabrication of the coupler (shouldn't be hard for a machine shop or someone with a six axis type of machine), this seems like it would be easy.

Difference being I actualy LENT them my car to AEM for a whole week, rented a rental car and wasn't reimbursed for the rental for over 2 months and it took six months to get a product out to me.

Sounds to me like the original threadstarters just pissed he didnt get some free product. Tein isn't responsible for you not putting your sway bars on, they didn't "**** you," **** if you have nothing in writing or never dropped off your car, you barely even have a relationship with em.

Anyone thats been following this Tein coilover situation knew to not expect anything any time soon, so why did you assume all was well and you'd get a free set of coilovers?

I went out and bought some ST suspension coilovers.
