Default Suspension

here's one more for you guys, I have been looking for something like the TEIN EDFC. same concept, but instead of adjusting the dampening force, would it be possible to have a performance coil-over, that I could use a electronic box inside the car to control ride height? there is no way that I would put airbags on my car, that's just not an option,I have been searching, with no luck. I don't even think suck a thing exists, but I just want to make sure

the reason why I would need such a thing, is that I love the look of a lowered car, but I unfourtunately have a nice speed bump between my condo, and the road ;(
so it's either I have something like I described above, or don't lower my car as much as I would like to.

Default Just got Lucky

Hey, after searching and searching, I guess I hit the right combination in google, and hit this:

"We all know what a PITA it is to adjust the height of four coilovers, right? TEIN was probably our biggest hero of the Auto Salon this year with electronic height-adjusting suspension. Praxis has a system similar to this, but theirs uses air while the TEIN system uses hydraulic oil and allows the user to adjust height wirelessly with a special keyfob. (Three memory positions, no less.)"

thats looks like it does what I need / want it to do

I've heard of stuff like that for WRX's but never a civic.

that looks pretty damn cool, and tien is a good brand so i'm sure it'll work just fine.

However be prepared to empty your wallet for max out your credit cards for it.


you have the site that info came off of?

There is the Praxis system for WRX's that they arre not supposidly going to make for some hondas that when you change the ride height it corner blances the car and stiffens the suspension up. It is quite a neat system but cost upward of 4000.
