Sorry, but are these "shocks/struts," or am I confused?

lol it's ok...... these are adjustable coilovers that use the Electronic Dampening Force Controller (EDFC), that allows you to adjust height anytime for both front and back never losing strength and stability, while giving you the ability to adjust your ride comfort from inside your car...... Stiff suspension down to Smooth Cadillac ride..... this setup is sweet..... kinda expensive but sweet...... You can buy coilovers allready from tein but you have to get out and adjust everything when you want a stiffer or smoother ride or when you wanna change ride heigth...... with this it's all at your fingertips...... set the heigth you want and then adjust the comfort inside.... never have to adjust outside again unless you want your car to have a different stance...... ohh man I am excited..... time to start putting away the cash for this.....

you don't adjust the height with this, just the stiffness of them.. you can go from smooth to a stiff ride at the touch of a button, not height..

correct as I stated before..... you can adjest stiffness at a touch of a button...... however you can adjust height..... they are coilovers and are adjustable...... done outside the car with a special wrench that is provided with the purchase..... or if these are equiped with the special key you can use a drill with the key attachment..... they really do the job..... read about them..... www.tein.com

yea the height can be adjusted, but not from the inside of the car like you can the ride stiffness with the EDFC..

I have the k-sports without the EDFC all I can do is height basicly from the outside.

nice! that sounds pretty sweet, but also pretty expensive, 1-2g? maybe o and with all of those dampening adjustments, can you have a setting that is "softer" than the SE suspension? jw and thanks

JIC-Magic said the same thing to me:

They said their FLT-A2 VIP Luxury Vehicle Coilover would be available in a couple of months. The development is complete and they have put in a order for the Maximas.

well do u think its worth waitin for or do u think its basically goin to be the same as the KSport GT Pro Damper?

i mean they are bascially both "Stage 2" coilovers...buh i'm leaning on the fact that these SS-P are coming out soo much l8r than the GT Pros that it would have to be better...do u think thats the case or are coilovers just coilovers?

Why would one set of coilovers be better than another based on there release date?
