Nice, can you give a bit more details, such as ride height change, sway bars, etc?

A price would be cool to. Also any driving impressions that I have, like ride quality and perfomance.

Thanks

Let's see a pic that shows the ride height. I think the 8 would look great lowered about 1.5".

My JIC's will be here tomorrow. The main shipment will arrive at JIC in Downey, CA in about the first week of December, so expect pre-orders to arrive before X-mas from your JIC dealer!!!


I have a lot of experience with JIC on other cars, especially the track. They have a higher spring rate compared to other low end coilovers... check my site, I hvae spring rates listed (link in sig below).

They are usually a bit higher spring rate, but the dampning is so much better than most other cars out there. Closest I've found (for other cars) is the H&R PCS setup (not the basic H&R colovers). Very controlled dampning, very good adjustment throughout in the JIC's!

What I daily drive, I also race on the track. If a product is not up to spec, it can be determined very quickly on the street in known industrial areas. I would expect nothing less than top notch quality from JIC!

If most of you are streeters, you might want to order with 1Kg/mm less springs than what they provide in the kit. You can order these as a preorder with any JIC dealer, and most of the time, they will have other spring rates in stock at JIC in CA.

Hope that helps and let me know if any of you have any questions on this product!
