Excelerate Performance is excited to announce that the TEIN Street Flex is now available for the 3G TL (04-08). The Street Flex damper is the evolution of the popular Type Flex coilover. Developed to provide the ultimate balance of comfort and performance for both street driving and circuit use, along with wide-range damping force adjustment using our new Advance Needle technology and new damper valving specs, giving the driver a much more noticeable feel in damping force change and controllability. The shortened shell case design provides optimum damper stroke at lower than standard vehicle ride height. Full-length adjustability offers separate spring preload and ride height adjustment. Updated internal components and external coatings increase durability and product life. Includes Pillowball Upper Mounts and is compatible with the EDFC and EDFC Active systems.

I have not much knowledge with the coilover department but how "better" are those coils to the competitor like BC, ISC, KW or other?

Well what are you looking for in a coilover? Then we can determine which is better for you.

TEIN is a great company because of the quality, ride height adjustment, damping adjustment, durability, proper spring rates, valving, etc.

So, comparing to Street Basis and Street Advance, the Flex version really shines at extremely lower levels... correct?

And what is the range of adjustability from factory ride height?

The TEIN Street Flex is very different from the SA/SB. It does have damping adjustment and a twin tube steel construction, but it includes pillowball upper mounts as well as a fully threaded shock body. This allows you to pre-load the spring and make your adjustments on the body of the strut for height.

Correct me if I'm wrong,


Pillowball upper mount = It comes with top hats
Fully threaded shock body = I do not have to touch spring perch to adjust ride height


Those look delicious.
