I've had it now for ten plus years. It's for an 89-91 car. My street car really has no use for it. And my race car is a 91 with the later 92+ setup. So no use either. I can send you the list of all the different programs that were available. I'll open up the box and get some shots and compare it to a factory original one.
IF it can do things that the stock one cannot and I find it desirable, what are you hoping to get out of it?
well...if anyone is interested, I have a complete fx3 system from an 89 with 30k miles on it. 4 shocks (painted red), 4 good actuators, 2 controllers (1 factory and one bosch aftermarket) and complete wiring from the main harness to the actuators. I pulled the system 9-10 years ago to coil overs and it has been boxed up since.
Had FX3 since new. I ordered the $1,700.00 option and never really felt the difference. It is standard on the ZR1 so it must have some advantage to handling

I didn't either till someone directed me to run the different modes at certain speeds over the railway tracks
Replaced mine with non adjustable heavy duty Bilstiens. Adjustments on FX3 are calibrated by the mode selected and the vehicle speed. At low speeds like in parking lots, regardless of setting selected I found the rear end of my car bobbed up and down as if there were no shocks at all on it. I also felt that 27 year old shocks needed replacing. For me FX3 and the Bose Gold audio system are too expensive and complex to retain. Getting rid of the Bose next.
I had FX3 on one of mine and personally wouldn't pay to fix it. Too expensive for not enough noticeable difference.
The FX3 is a pretty cool system, however it IS hard to notice at slower speeds. The chart explains why.....
In Texas we can routinely cruise at highway speeds of 85ish for looooooong periods of time. At that speed you can certainly feel a difference in the setting. ARound town, leave it in Tour.

I do about 50% highway and in town driving. I found the rear end bouncing at low speed uncomfortable. I am really pleased with the non adjustable bilsteins I installed. Thanks for the chart I like any information that I didn't know about C4's.
