-- here is an interesting discovery i made on my TEIN Flex with EDFC installation that i'd thought i'd share in hopes of getting some feedback

-- the damper rods on my front shocks tend to spin, putting tension on the edfc wires....so much so, that the drivers side damper rod spun 3 revolutions wrapping the wire around the rod itself

-- i've spoken to TEIN about it, and they are not 100% sure why it happens, they've seen the problem before on other cars (notably the 350z) and have devised a bracket to help keep the rod from spinning, and they have offered to make up a bracket for me as well

-- we did confirm that the installation was correctly done, and that nothing is loose - they in fact called the shop that did the installation to go over how it was done (nice gesture on TEIN for doing that for me)

-- just wondering if anyone has had this issue ?

had that problem on my mr2. found out that the motors were not properly tightend onto the strut rod. after that everything was perfect.

No issues with the motor wire here on any of my 8 motors (on SRC's).

i had this problem on my front passenger side on my EK i thought the rod was just broken as all the other ones were tight

-- no the rod is not broken - at least TEIN says its a known issue
