Does anyone know if theres a difference between the EDC and non-EDC R&T coils? I have only seen one part number. I know the rear EDC shocks have a larger shock rod..

I believe the Ohlins R&T suspension for EDC equipped cars comes with simulators to prevent an EDC fault. Dampers and springs are identical.

Non-edc cars since the edc rear shock rod is a larger diameter. I guess I'll figure it out when mine arrive, hopefully they come with good directions. |

Another alternative to EDC simulator is to have Mike Benvo code it away.

EDC rear...You'll get new rear mounting bushing with the R&T kit that fit the Ohlins rear damper shaft and, therefore, you will not reuse your stock rear EDC mounting hardware. Look at pic #6 in the OP - shows new black bushings, washer and mounting nut. Last edited by M3SQRD; 06-02-2013 at 08:16 AM.. |

Since on the ohlins the entire strut can spin in order to adjust ride height I am assuming it does not index into the spindle at all so how do you align where the sway bar end link bolts onto the strut? TLAR method? |

If I want to adjust the rear ride height do I adjust the length of the shock body in unison? If so, does anyone know the recommended "preload?" This may be the wrong terminology..
In the past with other setups after adjusting the ride height of the car to my liking I would jack up the suspension until the spring is just about to be compressed (0 preload) and then match the length of the shock body so it will bolt into the lower A-arm. For some setups I have heard you actually compress the spring by lets say 10mm and then match the shock body to this lengt. I would think in this second case you would be running 10mm of preload but again this may be the wrong terminology. Last edited by W Cole; 07-12-2013 at 01:56 PM.. |

There's no rear shock length adjustment.

I just got these installed, however, not sure how to adjust the rear dampeners. I know the front ones are on the bottom, however, I couldn't find it on the rears. Is it on top? Do I access it through the trunk?

Yes. I cut two crosses in the carpet in my trunk so I can reach in and turn the adjusters.

Yes. I just had a set of Vorshlag plates installed. Amazing piece of machine work.

So if tracking once or twice per month would these be recommended or will you guys running this setup eventually move onto a nore track setup?

Ohlins R&T is suited for both street and track use. If you are only tracking once or twice a month, you will enjoy these for a long time. Going to a more track setup would only destroy the ride quality and may not even get you better lap times.
