For 2.5 and some quality homie....Dampening, camber, and the design. These guys know whats happening..

Call me a label *****, I want the dope ____.

I am getting them for 1300 roughly from Dynamic in Lake forest California.

Eric M is pretty familiar with these guys-

I couldnt roll springs, not my style. too much of a bounce...

I think its pretty funny when I see a decent looking car rollin through intersections with everybody bouncin out there seats.

If the box cant get any faster it may as well squat and turn like a ****-

Default coilover

congrats on the JIC's, is there any specific reason why you went w/ jic? Just wondering, as cusco and tein are available. I have been in cars w/ all types of real coilover suspension sets, for me, i like the cusco, it maybe a bit harsh, but handles sick. Jic is very nice too.

i remember someone telling me JIC was like tenzo-r in japan.

i could be wrong.. i never had JIC...
but i know cusco has a 4" drop and they for 1200 a set..
hks is badass...
tein's a weenie drop but good for the price.. i think 750 or so..
1300 bucks for jic.. wow..

just a quick question. whats the lowest setting u can in rear?
is it like the tein setup in the rear?

i like how camber plates come with it.. thats badass.

ALL coilover setups will "be like the Teins in the rear" because of the rear axle beam design. It's forced to use an adjustable spring in the rear.

Oh yea, Cusco has dampening and camber plates included.

Good luck with your new coilovers...they are better than springs, that's for sure.

There are 2 reasons why I went JIC-

1. I have the exhaust-

2. I like the set up features. Whats cool is the adjustable lower housing for height. All coilovers are adjusted at the spring. With this in mind I am not losing spring travel, IE Cusco's did not have adjustable dampening and I feel thats important. I want full control of my suspension and JIC just happens to have it all.

Cusco's were my first choice-

Money is no object, peice of mind is.

2.5 front and rear, not much but if I wanted to slam-it I would have got airbags-

Thanks guyz-
I am really excited Ill post pics before and after the install...

By then I will be doing a custom paint scheme through the inside of the car, I am ripping apart the dashboard this weekend to start prepping. I will be using some House of Kolor paints and an airbrush to complete the task. The exterior will be underconstruction as I am starting to develop some graphics -

I am still looking for clear windows if anybody can help I will be willing to work something out, exchange of services maybe-

peace-

Wrong. Cusco's have all the same features the JICs have, but will go lower. And yes, the shocks are adjustable with 3.5K springs which are not much stiffer than my Teins. My Cusco coilovers, along with a front sway and strut bar, should be arriving this weekend. I post a review after they're installed.

JIC makes high quality suspensions and exhausts. We've been selling them for a year now and have had zero problems. The reason I went with Cusco is the gold color and ride height....I'm going to see how long I can drive the car with a 4" drop.

My Teins will be for sale after I get these installed. They are great, but I just had to go lower.

If you want the hookup on Cusco, call Bozz Performance in Fremont. Sorry, I don't have their number handy and their website is down right now.
