| Tein Basic, Flex, and Mono Flex 04+ RX-8 Coilovers |
 |
Tein's 2004+ RX-8 Basic coilovers are an entry-level setup that features ride-height adjustment but does not offer adjustable shock damping. The RX-8 Basic setup is valved for street use and is essentially an affordable, balanced alternative to purchasing shocks and springs or sleeve-type coilovers. The Tein Mazda RX-8 Basic coilovers feature a steel twin-tube design, with adjustable spring perches for ride height and corner balance adjustments while utilizing the OEM RX-8 suspension mounts. |
| Because the Tein RX-8 Basic coilovers are a complete setup, they offer increased stroke over a stock-type setup or spring and shock packages, which increases shock life and prevents the 'bottoming out' traditionally associated with lowering springs. The Tein RX-8 Basic coilover kit is rebuildable, making it a long-term solution. |

The Tein EDFC works with the RX-8 Flex and Mono Flex coilovers to allow for in-cabin adjustment of the shock absorber stiffness. By installing electric motors on the strut tops, ride quality can literally be adjusted at the push of a button. In addition, you have three presets for different types of driving (i.e. city, hi-way, and track); adding to the versatility of the Tein RX-8 Flex and Mono Flex coilovers. The Tein EDFC can control the 16 different stiffness settings and can also be put into 32 setting mode which adjusts in half-step increments for the purists and control freaks. The compact (approximately 3.5" wide x 1" tall x 4" deep) control box is easy to mount, making it a great add-on. |
