We should put out heads together and make coilovers cabin adjustable
Is it just me, or does anyone else think it would be fairly simple? Four motors which can adjust to tightly grasp the adjusting *****. Wire the 4 motors to a switch which can turn the motor forward or backwards. And put the switch somewhere in the cabin. The only problem i forsee it how to properly hook up to the fuse box (im no electrical expert) and to find 4 motors which can operate on the 12v the fuses put out. Any input from out resident electricians?

I like this one better... active dampening system.

I have Tein Flex Coilovers with EDFC... I have had bags before where adjusting the height of the car is as simple as pushing a button. This is not the same thing. The EDFC controls damping, not ride height. Although, with coilovers, ride height is adjustable, it takes just a bit more than the push a button.
With EDFC, there are 16 levels of adjustability (0 being the 'hardest' setting and 16 being the 'softest'). You control the damping of the front, as well as the damping of the rear. There are three presets. They act much like radio presets, in that you do not have to adjust the control every time you start up the car. You just push the setting for whatever you're feeling at that moment. And you can adjust on the fly, if so desired. Personally, I have one setting for a firm ride, or spirited driving on windy/country roads or something of that nature, one setting for highway driving - softer so I do not feel every bump, and one setting for "daily driving," a nice mix between the two (6 in the front, 10 in the rear is my personal preference).
I plan on writing a more in-depth review at some point in the near future, but I hope that answers a couple of your questions.
You can see my set-up here - the controller mounted in the ash tray. (It can still be closed to hide the unit.)

Totally agree with you. But like others, i need to be able to rise the car, not just the stiffness. This is the only obstacle for me before i am gonna get rims and lower the car(Roads are just way too uncompromising where i live). Steveo47, the only thing that i am waiting for to get right now, is something called the phantom cup kits. Check them out man. the only thing thats stopping me right now, is the fact that they won't sell it to people outside their club/state, until they have their patent made. And i am just waiting for that. I think thats the best thing for a coilover set-up.
