Is the Tein EDFC worth it? I am going to buy it for $250 brand new, but I just wanted to know what your opinons are about it. Thanks for the replies.

For the given price, yes. I play with settings on mine often enough for it to be useful.

ok, thanks guys, but do you guys think that with all the brands of coilovers out now, the EDFC/SS-P is a good combo for around $1500?

Great for the price. This is the first FWD car I can drift around 25mph exits. Controll is very precise too.

You know what, I told the guy that I rather pass. BECAUSE. . . of the fact that more and more companies are comming out with suspension for the TC, I might get something better for around $1500 (SS-P/EDFC). Thanks what I think anyways.

nah, where i live, hawaii, a lot of the guys that runumhard on the freeway, dont use that ____, its good to have, fun etc. but i didnt want to bother with having that on my hands if no one wanted to buy it. infact, i think its still for sale, thus meanning that it must not be in demand or it just didnt get spotted yet.

EDFC is defintely worth the $$$ especially at the price you are getting !!
I Live in East Bay and travel to San Francisco often. EDFC helps big time, set on softer setting when going into the city with bumpy road, a stiffer setting on smoother street or highway. I loved my Tein SSP with EDFC setup since day 1 the suspension was installed. Get the EDFC !!

LOL! Maybe I didn't get this out, I don't even have the car yet!!!! It's comming in sometime in May, all the Scions down here had side curtain airbags, but since I got the custom leather option, my salesman said that the two were not compatible. So the car should be comming in by May.

This is kinda why I didn't want to get the EDFC, by the time I get my car, there might be something better than Teins. Wheather there is a better deal, or there is just something better out there for the money. I know it is a good deal, but look at it this way, say if I bought it, and then got another suspension brand and cannot sell the EDFC for whatever reason, I would be out of $250. Like I said, the guy had it for sale for a while now and no one that I can see, was interested in it. Maybe he had no use for it? Could be the reason why it is brand new and he is selling it for soooo cheap?? LOL. Hope I got my point along.

BTW: You guys have been super cool to me throughout my first "big" thread. Thanks guys.
