Does the EDFC Motor Kit M12 include a controller?

No. The motors need a TEIN EDFC controller to work, and TEIN lists two that pair with this kit, the EDFC5 and the EDFC ACTIVE PRO. Neither controller is listed on BA at present, so ask BA about sourcing one when you order the motors.

How do I know if my dampers need M12 motors?

TEIN matches the motor kit to the car and the shock absorber type, and its compatibility search gives the right part. The TEIN EDFC Motor Kit M12 / M12 suits dampers that take M12 motors at both ends. Ask BA to check your damper part number before ordering.

Will it work on shocks from another brand?

No. TEIN states that EDFC can only be used with TEIN shock absorbers, and some TEIN models are not compatible either. Fixed-damping dampers such as the standard EnduraPro have no adjuster for a motor to turn, so check the damper series before buying motors.

How many damping levels does EDFC give?

It depends on the damper and controller. TEIN quotes 16 levels by hand on Mono Sport and Flex Z, 32 with EDFC and 64 with EDFC ACTIVE or ACTIVE PRO, which also adjust automatically by G-force and speed. The EDFC5 controller offers modes of 16, 32, 64 and 96 levels.

How many motor kits does a Super Racing kit need?

Two EDFC kits. Super Racing dampers adjust compression and rebound separately, so TEIN describes them as dual EDFC compatible. For the GDF Impreza WRX STI Super Racing kit, Turn 14 lists this M12 kit together with the M14 / M14 kit and the EDFC strut kit.

Description

TEIN EDFC Motor Kit M12 / M12

TEIN’s EDFC Motor Kit M12 / M12 fits stepping motors to TEIN dampers that take M12 motors at both the front and rear, so damping is set from the driver seat instead of by hand at each shock. Each motor takes the place of the hand adjuster knob. The motors are half of an EDFC system: without an EDFC5 or EDFC ACTIVE PRO controller, sold separately, they do nothing. On non-TEIN shocks or fixed-damping TEIN models, the kit has no use.

Choosing the Right Motor Size

TEIN sells six EDK05 motor kits, from EDK05-10100 to EDK05-14140, and says the correct one depends on the vehicle and the shock absorber type. The two sizes in the name give the motor for the front dampers and for the rear dampers. TEIN matches them through its compatibility search, so ask BA to check your damper part number before ordering, because the motor size has to match the dampers on the car.

Features

M12 stepping motors for the front and rear dampers
Sealed rubber motor covers, per the Turn 14 product overview
Smaller stepping motor that TEIN designed to suit more applications
Complete wiring loom with female and male connectors
Extended-length wiring, as described in the Turn 14 overview
Pairs with the EDFC5, which adds jerk-reactive automatic adjustment, AI learning and quieter motor operation

Applications

Universal (TEIN EDFC-compatible dampers needing M12 motors front and rear):

Notes

A controller is required and not included; TEIN lists the EDFC5 and the EDFC ACTIVE PRO for this kit, and neither is listed on BA, so ask BA about sourcing one
EDFC works only with TEIN shock absorbers, and some TEIN models are not EDFC compatible
Turn 14 lists the EDFC Motor Kit M12 for the TEIN Super Racing Dampers for GDF Subaru Impreza WRX STI, together with the TEIN EDFC Motor Kit M14 / M14
Cars with strut front suspension may also need the TEIN EDFC Strut Kit, which keeps the motor wiring from tangling as the strut turns with the steering

About TEIN

TEIN was founded in Yokohama, Japan, in 1985 by former rally mechanic Hakaru Ichino, joined soon after by driver Yoshio Fujimoto. The team reached the World Rally Championship in 1989, and in 1995 Fujimoto won the Safari Rally in a Toyota Celica GT-FOUR, the first Japanese driver to do so. TEIN launched its own dampers in 1990 and came to supply around 80 percent of the dampers in the N1 Taikyu endurance series. TEIN USA has served the Americas from Downey, California, since 2001.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
