a more in depth description of the shocks..
The Super Racing (SRC) kit is developed by TEIN to be used on the street and track in any country. The concept behind the coilovers is to produce a coilover that could be used to drive to the circuit, compete, and drive home. The vehicles we use during development of SRC range from lightly to moderately tuned. Some of the key aspects during development of the SRC are performance, drivability, and comfort. The Evasive spec S2000 SRC kit retains many of the same fundamentals but places a greater emphasis on track performance.
Evasive Spec includes both Small Base Valve and related Smaller Diameter Shims.
- In both base vales (normal and small) there is a bypass. This bypass controls oil flow at low speed damping. (Slow Speed Damping is most related to initial steering response). The bypass valve on the Small Base Valve Spec is smaller, therefore it is better able to control the oil flow, and the damping force is greater at slow piston speed than a normal base valve spec. coilover. This results in improved initial steering response, which can easily be felt on turn-in.
- The Smaller Shims allow for quicker Damping Force (DF) response due to diameter of shim. The faster DF response means quicker steering response, quicker transition from compression to rebound and vice versa, and allows the damper to react more quickly to any type of movement.
- Smaller Shims have a greater range of motion in terms of bending. This allows for more oil control at low speed damping. The larger shims have more of an on/off type movement at low speed damping.

would love to ride on one and feel the difference!
