Stage 3.5 Cup Kit Suspension In their endless quest to ensure the ultimate driving performance, H&R introduces their new Cup Kit suspensions. Every kit is specifically matched custom valved, shortened shock and spring set, distinctively designed to pro
TEAS stands for 'Tanabe Electric Active Suspension and is the counterpart of the new Sustec Pro FIVE & Sustec Pro SEVEN suspension. This compact unit is the brain behind the highly sophisticated new Tanabe suspensions. TEAS is a fully programmable dampener controller that allows for dampening force to be automatically adjusted while driving. TEAS accomplishes this by connecting and using the signal from the vehicles Speed Sensor.
Remote dampening control from within the vehicle is not a new concept by any means. In fact, many Japanese vehicles from the 1980's including the FC3S RX-7 and MA70 Supra had buttons to change dampening ; Unlike other controllers that are simply an update of this older technology, TEAS is a much larger step towards highly digital advanced suspension control and tuning through its speed sensing
TEAS active dampening control is uniquely possible due to the use of the specialized valving of the SEVEN, in conjunction with TEAS; slim, high speed actuators. These actuators change dampener settings in 1/100ths of a second, which is necessary as TEAS can continuously change settings at different speeds.
