Product Specifications
MONO RACING is developed to satisfy the drivers who frequently take their cars for a spin at the race tracks. Based on the settings of the high-end model SUPER RACING and on a wealth of data gained through participation in various motorsports, spring rates and damping force for MONO RACING are determined to be most suitable for sports driving.
For front strut suspensions, MONO RACING includes the camber and caster angle adjustable pillow ball upper mounts evolved from SUPER RACING upper mounts. Many upper mounts provide camber adjustment feature, but MONO RACING upper mounts are also caster adjustable. Camber angle can be adjusted steplessly while caster angle adjustment is available in 4 steps and both can be adjusted individually.
*Except some models.
Lower brackets on strut type suspensions come with camber angle adjustment feature. Camber angle can be adjusted by rotating the eccentric collar 180°.
This feature can enable camber angle adjustment, even if it can not be adjusted with the upper mounts. Both adjustments at the upper mounts, if applicable, and the lower brackets combined allows for total camber angle adjustment to meet various needs and preferences.
*Eccentric collars with different offsets are available (optional).
*Except some models (e.g. struts with inset type brackets)
At the time of purchase of a new MONO RACING kit, +/-2kgf/mm of the standard spring set can be chosen, for a free of charge.
*Only +2kgf/mm springs are available for some models.
Mono tube structure of MONO RACING completely separates the oil chamber and the gas chamber and hence aeration does not occur. This enables stable generation of linear damping force, reacting to the finest changes in road surfaces, even when running aggressively and repeatedly on circuits. With this, superior-quality MONO RACING offers capability for the most delicate control of the vehicle and for the deepest level of communication with the roads.
For strut type suspensions, which require high lateral stiffness, highly-rigid "Upright Strong Tube" structure, the fruit of participation in professional motorsports worldwide such as WRC & WRX, is adopted.
Damping force adjustment knob attached to the top of the shock absorber allows easier access, making the repeaded adjustment within the limited time less hassle, and makes the installation of EDFC motors (optional) a breeze.
Waterproofing process, which is a must for inverted types, is reduced/simplified greatly.
Use of specially-designed urethane bump rubbers effectively reduces the bump impact, to maintain the comfortable ride even when going over bumps/gaps and to protect dampers from bottoming out. (The image shown is for wishbone / multi-link types. Some models use OE bump rubbers.)
Advantage: adjusting ride height has little effect on ride quality.
In addition to combining a low down style with ride comfort, this system offers more setup options for sport driving too.
MONO RACING uses "ADVANCE M.S.V." for damping force adjustment feature. "ADVANCE M.S.V." combines "M.S.V." mechanism to finely control damping force in micro speed range with "ADVANCE Needle" to widen the damping force adjustable range, for superior steering response and traction performance, fully utilizing the damping force adjustable range.
MONO RACING features 16-level damping force adjustment, for simultaneous adjustment of compression and rebound.
Modify ride comfort and handling according to your preference, changing the properties of the shock absorber with the adjustment dial.
The above are examples; actual settings vary according to the vehicle's circumstances.
The EDFC Series offer easy damping force adjustment from the driver's seat.*

Optimal Dust Boot
Thanks to its smooth compression and high durability, the dust boot guards the piston rod from damage, and keeps foreign material out of the shock absorber.
(Some vehicles use their OE dust boots)
No-Sag Spring
Cold formed with SAE9254 steel (minimum tensile strength 200 kgf/mm2), our springs are outstandingly sag-proof and boast extreme resiliency.
Superior rust protection is ensured with a highly durable powder coating that does not peel or flake. Our high-quality springs can be used without worries, in any conditions.
High-Performance Damper Oil
Since TEIN's damper oil maintains a stable viscosity in a broad temperature range, it sustains smooth stroke and reliable damping force in a variety of circumstances.
Due to excellent anti-foaming properties, it's resistant to cavitation (bubble forming). Since it withstands high heat too, it's suitable for intense sport driving as well.
Furthermore, the damper oil keeps up its superior performance long-term, because it's resistant to deterioration over time.
Rust-Proofing
TEIN-Green Powder Coating
A bright TEIN-green powder paint is used on the shock absorber's shell case. Our powder coating technique produces an extremely strong and durable barrier. No harmful organic solvents are used, for minimal pollution.
Superior durability and corrosion resistance are achieved by TEIN's patented 2-Layer, 1-Bake powder coating method, which uses 2 layers of anti-rust paint on a blasted surface.
(Japanese patent number 4347712)
Special Surface Treatment 'ZT Coating'
Our unique ZT Coating surface treatment on the ride height adjustment thread is abrasion resistant against gravel/debris, and further enhances its corrosion resistance.
With zero claims for stuck parts due to rust in 500,000 shock absorbers, TEIN shock absorbers are amazingly rustproof. We're confident of customer satisfaction even in coastal areas or regions with heavy snowfall.
Let customers speak for us
Brian R. was extremely helpful and spent a good amount of time answering my questions about switching to coilovers. He was a wealth of knowledge and made the purchasing and installation process very easy.
He is so genuine, he helped me out on which parts I should get for my wife’s ‘16 Veloster Turbo. Parts came super fast and was packaged beautifully
Havn't installed yet so I cannot speak to the parts, as they get some run time I will review. Brian at FI was amesome though all through the process. Had questions prior to ordering and he went above and beyond in providing me with answers. After I ordered the parts he called a few days later appologizing for not reaching out sooner, which is crazy cool since country was dealing with hurricane devestation. I didnt expect to recieve parts for a while however they all showed up in about a week. I will def do buisiness with them again and recommend them to anyone in the future.
I bought Silvers Neomax coilovers with aero spring rates (14k/12k) for my track car. The quality of them is great. Install was straight forward and they are easy to adjust and tune as needed. Real happy with them so far and I think they're the best value out there in coilovers. Great price without a sacrifice in quality or performance. Also Brian at FI PERFORMANCE has been great in responding to all of my questions. Has been a great experience so far.
Quality part.
Brian answered every time I called and answered all the questions
Excellent coilovers
The best customer service from Brian
Highly recommended
Car looks great and. Handles amazing
Works great it stiffens up the rear end and no more wheel hop best diff brace out of all I have used in the past, money well spent.
Installed the After Dark hooks on my C5: the rear hook was very easy, and if you only need one hook, it's a quick and easy install. Front is more work: you're going to want a step drill or right angle adapter, since clearance between the bumper and A/C condenser is tight. Drilling into the bumper is not trivial: it's hard, use cutting fluid and make sure your drill bits are sharp. Once it's drilled and the rivnuts are installed, it's easy from there. It's a good design, well made, and at a reasonable price.
The product was originally marked for 2005 and up gx470. I managed to fit it into my 2003 by flipping one of the front hanger mounts. Sound is throaty and deep a bit loud at first. But the sound has mellowed out after a few hundred miles. Hardest part was removing old exhaust had to use Sawzall. Make sure to buy the 2.5 donut gasket ahead of time. The system is high clearance. Its tucked between the frames no chance of hang ups.
It’s the best mod I’ve done. Should have been the first thing I did.
Brian was extremely kind and helpful to make sure I was getting set up with the correct products. The Brey Krause harness bar is extremely high quality. Don’t cheap out on safety stuff this is definitely the harness bar you want in your c5. The combination of great service from Brian and the quick arrival I highly recommend FI Performance and will definitely be using them in the future!
Five stars for the parts and service. Ride quality is better than expected for a coilover setup. And Brian was super helpful in getting the correct setup for my truck
Fits perfectly and does exactly what it needs to do. No complaints.
Brian recommended these end links after sharing my plans to do some HPDE, Autocross and Street driving for the C5 Z06. The parts feel great, I did have a warranty issue that was addressed by both Brian and AFE, I was very satisfied that they took care of my issue in a timely manner as well. Highly recommend both Brian and AFE, thank you as always for your help!
