Hi
The TEIN FLEX Z is their economy line with twin-tube shock system, so the performance and feel would be something entirely different with UP's Monotube systems. TEIN has higher end Monotube systems which may compare more to the UP fairly.
Of course, there is a different barometer for everyone to feel differences and what the values are intrinsically. So I won't say there is a better or worse here.
With the Model 3 system used on the Model Y at least on UP's current coilover, I think the shock body itself is more than capable and within range of its
30-way adjustments to cater to Model Y requirements. The Monotube system Unplugged makes, have very wide range adjustment of rebound and high-speed compression parameters that is pertinent to being able to fine tune the ride quality and overall dynamic transition handing characters.
The spring rates are fairly close too for their Model 3 (Dual Motor) and Model Y Dual Motor spec'd coilover. More recent ones (ones with gold springs, as opposed to green springs) made in the last couple of years have a VERY nice Japan-made Swift spring sets too, and they are the key to making the recent "Luxury coilover" as well as "Dirt and Snow Coilover" systems so compliant and comfortable.
Keep in mind though, ALL shock absorbers (dampers) have a finite life, so if you are buying used, be sure it isn't too old.
Adjustable ones will be able to tighten up a bit to compensate for age, but when too old, they do degrade fast or leak...any shock.
For ANY shocks, if it's over 10~15,000 miles old, I would say it is half used up and isn't worth the huge amount of labor to install used... This, because 30-40K (bumpy USA road) miles would really be the point when we should be rebuilding monotube shocks, or replacing twin tubes anyway.
If that Unplugged coilover has gold colored "Swift" branded springs, and seller's car is a young mileage car, I would say it's good.
