I'm currently in the process of purchasing some coilovers and was seeking some advise from those with the Tein Flex and Buddy Clubs.

I know the Buddy Clubs are great coilovers, well suited for street/track/autox use, but I love the idea of being able to adjust the damping force of the Teins with the EDFC. However, I've read that the Flex are more suited for street driving.

Those with the Tein Flex, do you track/autox your cars, and if so, how are the Flex suited for this purpose? I like buttons, so the EDFC appeals to me, but ultimately, I don't want to spend money on something I'm going to end up changing in the end.

Thanks for your help.

Get the BC's !! I can help ya install them.

 

Haha. Good one Ron... ass

 

buddyclub is good stuff

 

i dont think any one can comment on tracking the flex's yet since they just came out. i purchased a set through the evolution gb but have yet to install them. i dont track my car, but i too have heard that they are more of a street coilover.

 

just purchased the flex two days ago. after installing them with help of friends, we went canyon driving through decker towards pch in malibu and considering the coilovers hasn't been broken in, i think it exceeded my expectations! handling was great, although i have cusco stuff in my car, with my stock SO2's. was going fast on every corner and turns and noticed little bit of body roll and also noticed that the back was a little stiff considering my setting was 8 all around. overall impressions: great coilovers on canyon runs and with the edfc installed, easy way to change damping force without going out of your car.....now i need to go to westend and have my alignment done and corner balancing!

 

Thanks for all the input guys.

 

I've had my BC setup for the last 50k miles and love them. I've been to several weekend track sessions and a few auto-x's and love the new setup. I would highly recommend these for track and street use.

 

Great to hear, just wait til you get used to the coilover and then start doing some tunning and figure out which settings on the shocks are best for your each need. And then you can save them in 3 of the memory settings. These coilovers are so new. I'm sure over time people will be tracking them and we will hear alot more reviews.
