13332, suspension lift w/a button?
Posted by bustrblue2, Nov-12-02 01:06 PM
i remember when i first started looking into dsm's that there was a guy that was selling a switch to put in your interior that would raise the rear suspension by 2". anyone know if he's still selling it or how to make one? wouldn't that help some with traction?

What would it adjust?

Unless you have hydros or airbags, there isn't anything to make the back go up or down.

it lifted the rear suspension up 2". don't know how or anything but i remember it. was a long time ago. probably 4yrs or more. but wouldn't that help with traction? if any a little, but any is better than none.

I remember Tein working on a remotely activated coilover setup. You could raise or lowe rhte car without jacking it up at the touch of a button, and it would spin the perch to either raise or lower the car. I can't imagine that torque that would hafta be applied to the perch to make it turn and lift the car, but it is a really neat concept.

Is this what youre talking about?

It doesn't raise or lower the vehicle, it controls the damping of the sohocks/struts....

thanks for looking, but no thats not it. 'cause i remember thinking to myself, that would be neat to sit at a red light, ready to race, and flick that switch and watch the peoples face:) wish i could remember where i saw it. this sucks

There was another product in development that would compliment the EDFC, and it would allow for ride height adjustment on a coilover system that would go along with the EDFC. Complete in cabin adjustability. That, I would spend a lot of money on.

the only problem with the tein setup for that is that they dont' make em for our cars. really sucks too that they don't it. i would like to have that on my car cause then i could sit there and adjust it from the inside instead of having to pull over and get out to adjust them.

yeah tien makes the coilover setup but the EDFC system wont fit cause the servos required would hit the hood and you wont be able to close it
