No you can not add EDFC to unajustable struts - Tein Basic

also can you add the edfc to any set of tein coilover shocks?

Lots of places have Tein...
www.groupbuycenter.com
www.jhpusa.com
I think www.inlinefour.com has them, and the list can go on and on.

I dunno what you mean by match up to the Spoons, but I couldn't tell you how they compare if that's what you meant. I'm pretty sure the Teins will handle better as haven't seen a set of Mugen or Spoon coilovers or dampeners than compare to some of the higher end Tein stuff that costs the same, like the Tein HA, or RS kits. Even the Tein SS has more adjustability. Isn't the Soppn dampeners only 5 or 8 settings for the shocks? No Tein that's adjustable has LESS than 16 dampening settings.

EDFC only work with dampening adjustable Tein kits. And not just any of them either, they won't work with the SS kit for Civics, but the Tein FLEX for Civics can have EDFC though. I've been exploring into how to get EDFC to work with SS on Civics. The issue with SS and EDFC is that there isn't enough space clearance between the hood cross beams and the EDFC motor units. The rears have no issues, but you have to use all 4 motors together for EDFC to work. That's I've been told at least buy the local Tein dealer that I got my SS coilovers from 2 years ago.

i have checked out the ss coilovers and they look like exactly what i need for my style of driving and the adjustability it amazing going to buy them i think. i think my cf hood may actually let the motors for the edfc fit but if you find out a way to fit them underneath my oem style cf hood that would be great. the cowl on my new one seems to atract cops. also what front lip is that Y2k? mine is a spoon style but it dont look like yours i thought it would. boo hoo spent alot on it too

Chances are, unless you put spacers on your hood (tacky IMO) then the EDFC won't fit, esp. if your hood is OEM style.

The lip I have is CTR style. Only cost me $50 too. But it's similar to the '99-'00 Si lip, except it's a little more aggressive looking, and flares out slightly more.

CTR ok cool yeah it is more agressive it looks tight on your car. also is there a rear that goes with? my muffler sticks out a little too much and im trying to compensate. it seems the 97 and 98 civics mine is 98 have bumpers that curve in at the bottom in the back as oppased to out which makes for a wierd stuck out mufler effect. w
