Hi all,

Due to a setup change on my R33 GTR, I have for sale my excellent condition set of Genuine Tein Control Master Type Flex Coilovers, complete with the Tein EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller)

These coilovers are top shelf quality and manufactured in Japan, not China, and are suitable for BCNR33 and will also fit BNR34

All 4 are in outstanding condition, and have seen very little use overall - My car came with this setup fitted and in as new condition, and has since covered around 3,000 km's only.

Spring rates are 8kg (F) 7kg ® from memory, and provide a great range of adjustment to make them firm yet comfortable for everyday driving, while also being excellent on the track.

The EDFC gives you the ability to quickly and easily adjust the damper settings on the fly, from inside the cabin.

Technical Information from Tein:

TEIN has used its years of experience in various motor sports to produce a kit that provides the ultimate balance between comfort and performance. Developed for drivers seeking an aggressive coilover that can be used daily, and provide all the adjustments needed for circuit use. The FLEX damper Kit features the latest technology for all drivers who are seeking performance, and adjustability, while not giving up all ride comfort. We have incorporated separate spring perch height, and shell case length adjustment, which allows the suspension to retain more stroke and allows for more suspension tuning. The FLEX damper kit includes pillow ball upper mounts, which increase steering response; 16 levels of damping force adjustment, and is compatible with the EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) for added convenience and adjustability.

Standard Features:


• Steel Construction
• Twin Tube internal construction
• Ride Height adjustable via threaded body and spring seats
• 16 way adjustable dampers, compression and rebound combined
• Pillow ball upper mounts for increased steering feel
• Upper camber adjustment on front for strut type vehicles
• Larger piston diameter for strut type front and rear (22mm)
• EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) compatible
• Powder coated brackets with Teflon coated shock body for heavy duty rust prevention

Per the Tein USA Official website, the Control Master Type Flex base kit will set you back around $3000USD, and that does not the EDFC, which will add another $400 or so.

I am asking $980.00 firm for the whole kit - Note this is DIRT cheap, so please don't haggle or try low balling.

Pickup available on the North Shore in Sydney, or alternatively you are welcome to organise your own courier to pick up.

First in, best dressed!

Cheers :)

I have had these coilovers in my car for 6 years and feel exactly the same today as they did back then.

Quality product!

Not at this stage sorry mate, I would prefer to sell the EDFC and suspension as a package.

Price drop to $900.00 FIRM!

As above, and per the photos, they are in excellent condition and were only removed due to a complete change in my setup, so there is no need to rebuild.

This is a high end Japanese coil over package that I'm selling at a dirt cheap price purely to move them, it's a damn good suspension setup for minimal money, so my loss will be someone else's gain here.

Cheers!

    • Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.         
    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
