Tein Flex Z Coilovers – 2008–2017 Mitsubishi Lancer CY4A | VSE20-C1SA4-C
⚠️ CHASSIS CODE NOTE — This kit is for the Mitsubishi Lancer CY4A (standard Lancer 2.0L). The Lancer Evolution X uses the CZ4A chassis code and requires a different coilover kit. Confirm your chassis code before ordering.
Tein’s Flex Z coilovers for the 2008–2017 Mitsubishi Lancer CY4A. Tein’s entry-level street coilover line — monotube construction, ride height adjustable via spring perch, 16-way damping adjustment, and EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) compatible for remote damping adjustment. Full set — front and rear. Made in Japan. 63.6 lbs shipped.
Flex Z — Features
- Monotube Construction: Monotube design provides more consistent damping response than twin-tube at equivalent price points — better heat dissipation under repeated suspension inputs (track, spirited driving)
- Height Adjustment: Ride height adjusted via lower spring perch — allows lowering without affecting damping stroke. Adjust to your preferred stance while maintaining suspension travel
- 16-Way Damping Adjustment: Single-knob 16-position damping adjustment — turn to stiffen or soften to preference. Covers the range from comfortable daily use to firmer street/track use
- EDFC Compatible: Compatible with Tein’s optional EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) system — allows damping adjustment from inside the cabin without manual access to the shock body
- ZEAL Spring Technology: Tein’s ZEAL springs — consistent spring rates and long service life
- Made in Japan: Manufactured by Tein in Japan
Flex Z — What to Expect
The Flex Z is Tein’s value-oriented street coilover — a meaningful upgrade over worn factory struts for daily driving and occasional spirited use. It is not a track-focused coilover — for sustained track use or aggressive driving, Tein’s Street Advance Z or Mono Sport lines offer more capability. For a daily-driven Lancer that needs adjustable ride height and improved suspension performance over stock, the Flex Z is a well-matched choice.
Fitment
- 2008–2017 Mitsubishi Lancer CY4A (standard Lancer — not Evo X)
- CY4A chassis only — does not fit Lancer Evolution X (CZ4A)
CY4A chassis only — confirm your chassis code before ordering. Professional installation strongly recommended. A full wheel alignment is required after installation. Allow suspension to settle before making final height adjustments. Re-torque all fasteners after the first 150–2000 km. 16-way damping: start at the middle setting and adjust to preference. EDFC system sold separately. Made in Japan by Tein.
