Ijust put on a set of PSS9 and am very impressed with the set up. Very well dampened and not harsh at all. Few clicks of the knob and they are ready for the track.

I wouldnt call the Tein Flex soft at all. Spring rates are 10k 12k. Zeal function B6 at 6k is soft, also the Tein CS is about the same.

if you ever consider Buddy Club Racing Spec Dampers, make sure you check out the GB forum. Gruppe-S has them for $1299 shipped. Get it while the price is good, it's a STEAL.

I realize what the Tein website says. At 10k front and 12K rear that is like 2-3 times as stiff as stock. The poster said he doesnt really want stiffer than stock. Eventhough Tein says its for street, this poster might wanna try something in the 5-6K range.

BTW, someone else emailed Tein about the RS for use on a S2k. Tein's reply was its not for street and will bend your frame if used for a long time.

Im considering the Tein Flex, and I really wanted the EDRC. According to the website, the S2000 isnt compatable with it, the motors that control the dampening rate dont fit. Is there any other coilover that has this option?
