I was told that Ohlins were discontinued, Where they ?

Also I just find out about Tein SRC's with dual EDFC controllers, any opinion on that?

I'm running stock but have driven on the Amuse and they're quite nice as far
as ride. It wasn't my car so I didn't actually get to test them but they felt good..

I have researched a bit on the Tien Flex and it seems like it's a love it or hate it. Seems like you can't go wrong with the PSS9. Does anyone have experience with the KW1? Or do they not make KW1 for S2k? You guys input are very helpful. Keep the comments coming!

yes ohlins for s2k is discontinued, but thats from ohlins of sweeden. they are going back on the drawing board in japan to develop a new monotube system for s2k with the help of ohlins japan.

the one i got is the JDM Ohlins DFV model, never released in the US

i recently bought tein RAs off a fellow s2k member. haven't tracked them, but they're pretty damn good for street use. A bit stiff, but i'll live. Not sure if they're still being manufactured though. I approve them.
