Did you ever hook up the EDFC? I'm wondering how that works along with it, but this system seems really innovative!

No I didn't end up hooking up the EDFC. Youzealand offers an "upgrade" so that their hybrid coilover system could be compatible with EDFC, but in order to have that work, I would have needed to ship the coilover back to Youzealand (in Japan) and have them do something to to make that work. Didn't particularly want to do that.

That's why I ended up having so many conversations with AST USA and ultimately ended up with the flexible dampening ***** in the rear for these.

Thanks dude! Buddy of mine had to the same grinding of the spindle you had to do to install these because of the caliper bracket not sitting completely flush. I sent an email over to Brembo regarding that.

MP kit is at the bodyshop getting done soon. SEMA was a priority over my work - so hopefully soon enough.

Good stuff Brian. It's still nice that you have that adjustment though from the shocks though. You're on a good role ! Really can't wait to see the MP kit on!

Yeah, got a few things coming soon - so hopefully this car will be done soon enough. I feel like I've been lagging for far too long now.
