EOI: Tein Monoflex AUS-SPEC Coilovers

Hi guys, just putting the feelers out for a production run of AUS-Spec Tein Monoflex coilovers. The new monotube design is a step ahead of flex or superstreet coilovers, with more control and less fatigue after a few hard laps.

These would be genuine Aus-Spec from Fulcrum Suspensions, sold exclusively through Unique Auto Sport.


Features include

• Custom Aussie Spring and Valve Rates.
• 16 way damping force adjustment for both front and rear coilovers.
• Vehicle ride height and spring pre-load can be adjusted independently. Ride height is adjustable in two ways; adjustable shock length and adjustable spring seat for a greater range of adjustment.
• Pillowball upper mounts
• Mono Tube internal design is utilized for increased oil capacity, improved heat dissipation, larger valving, and quieter operation.
• New microspeed valve system that allows for improved comfort through more precise oil flow control inside the damper.

Price: Price per set would be discounted to $2235 for this group buy.
Minimum Order: We would need ten buyers to go ahead.
Timeframe: Open to suggestions, need expressions of interest first!

Yes, 16 levels of adjustment so you can set for your application.

Also being aus-spec the spring and rebound rates will be softer to suit our roads.

 

Whenever we have ten buyers We need the numbers to make up the order so I'm flexible with the timeframe.

 

Yes they are edfc compatible and will be a big step up from super streets. Let me know if you have any other questions, will do my best to talk you into it haha

 

Excellent, good to see such a positive response already.

 

Ok when you are talking kgs etc you are talking about spring rates, which are fixed. Incorrect spring rates will affect ride stiffness/harshness and weight transfer (which will hurt performance at the track), hence why we are getting AUS spec coilovers with custom spring rates to suit our road and track conditions. The japanese and american spec tein coilovers have spring rates which are too stiff -we know this because fulcrum have worked closely with UAS over the years (including developing the first set of tein flex coilovers for Z32 in the world) with lots of track time and fine tuning.

OK so now we have spring rates explained, the coilovers allow you to adjust the amount of preload on the spring, so as you can tighten it up for the track or soften the ride for the street. This is done either at the coilover, or can be done electronically in cabin using an Electronic Damper Force Controller (EDFC for short). Monoflex are EDFC compatible so you have the option.

The height of these coilovers is also user adjustable, and adjusting the height will not affect damper adjustment (ride stiffness). Some coilovers allow you to adjust height but not damper, or damper but not height. These coilovers allow you to adjust both independantly.

This is a bit of an open ended question... what do you want from a coilover? Heaps of height adjustment? Range of dampening adjustment? Something that will perform well at the track and on the street?

 

Isn't damper controlled via preload? Interested if you can explain the mechanics, have read a bit but i'm still learning! Thanks

 

Cool thanks for the info.

With respect to the tein products, AUS spring rates are softer (so compression) and valves (which control rebound) are different also. They are actually a different part number to the JAP and US market products.

With the bottom adjustment, are you talking about the clevis clip for height adjustment? If yes then this is retained on both flex and monoflex products.

 

They are definately different -check out UAS motorsport pages, somewhere in there they talk about changing from jap flex to softer aus flex which resulted in better track times.
