So, I feel a bit of a tit having to ask this, but I can't for the life of my remember what it's called.

Anyways, I'm trying to find the name of something; a development used in performance vehicles over the past year or two in which I think it is the dampers have small metal flakes in the fluid which align when an electric current is passed through the fluid to stiffen the ride. Or something.

Anyone know what this system is called and where I can get more information? I should know this stuff! :dunce:

Google for the win:

magneto-rheological, or MagneRide.

Thanks mate, that article lead me in the ride direction. I couldn't find it myself.
