ok ppl don't laugh and sorry for my lack of proper terms but does anyone have coilovers that are hooked up to the box where you can adjust them from inside ur car? I can't think what they are called. if you do would you let me know if u like it? is it worth the money?

Umm.. I know KW has a set out for Euro's that are hydraulic and adjustable by the flip of a switch...
And I was just reading the other day that a company came out with a bagged coilover type set up..
But both are very, very expensive.
Unless you've got the money to blow, I'd recommend sticking with a regular static drop.

Yea the KW kit I have seen, the air ride one is about 2600$ One site I was on had an air ride kit for 2300$. You can get standard tein coilovers for around 800$, not adjustable with a switch, but still adjustable.

The Tein EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) makes it possible for the driver to control the damping force by controlling a motor installed in the shock absorber while being seated in the driver's seat

for use with any tein coilover set with pillowball mounts.. But I believe this is what you were refering too

these run around 450$-500$ and of course you gotta have Tein Coilovers also.

only worth it if u plan on changing yer suspension setup alot...if u just drive the car daily and dont take it to the track or autocross...then no its not worth it....
