adjust manually where u gotta take of the wheels and need to take out springs to adjust whereas electronically can be done from a device attached to the top mount of the coilovers to adjust... saves the trouble in having to take off the rims everytime to adjust the clicks

Wtf you can adjust the spring rates on the cusco??

I though you could only adjust the damper

most coilovers have the damper adjustable knob at the top... adjusting the springs will allow you to change the spring rate to match with your damper settings.

i dunno how you change your damper settings.. if thats what your talking about.. only electronic one i can think of is EDFC for teins. could be wrong tho.

but n+ is on the bottom of the front dampers. so just jacking the car up and reaching under will allow your to adjust it, and the rear, you just pull away the carpet and adjust it.

you cant adjust spring rates on coilovers.. only adjust the height and damper.. pretty sure the only way you can **** up the spring rates is if your springs arent captive. springs are made to a certain stiffness and will stay on that..

well thats what i think..

of coz the spring rate can be adjusted, you can tighten or loosen the spring to adjust its spring rate, and becoz adjusting the spring rate will affect the travel of the shock, so most ppl will just set the springs to "just tight" and then match it with the damper rate.

Ah fair enough... I might get something with adjustable spring rates next time i get the money =D

I got 07 FD2 Sport
I bought a set of S-tech and box says FD2 - but when I went to get it installed the installer says it fron springs do not fit the car. I googled the TEIN code on the box and it says it is for CTR FD2R from TEIN website japan.

Now, does that mean I return it to the shop and get the FD1 TEIN S-tech? reading the trail people have posted up that AUSD model FD1 and FD2 (sport) share the same suspension?

Can someone please confirm - and if so, what about spring rate? because FD2 engine is heavier>

i think fd1 and fd2 can share same springs for SOME brands. Try asking the store who sold it to you? or u can ask some traders here who sell tein, although i think the few traders who do aren't active anymore =/.
