 Bad ass Tein WRC spec suspension uses dual remote reservoirs one for high speed and one for low speed compression circuits.  The EDFC remote adjusters have not been hooked up yet.  The dampers are inverted shaft to make them super strong.

Total trickness here.  The radiator has been moved to the trunk for impact protection and better weight distribution which helps for jumping.  This shroud connects to big ducts which take air from vents built into the rear windows.  Pretty cool!

 Hot air is extracted from the back of the car out the vented rear carbon deck by these powerful fans.  The rear mounted radiator is not subjected to flung rock damage or clogging from roosted dirt either.
