JIC Alignment
JIC Alignment
I'm new to the forum and have done some searching but not found exactly what I am looking for and was hoping some you gurus might point me in the right direction.
I recently had a set of JIC coilovers installed, lowered about 1", corner balanced and aligned to US spec. I had H&R lowering springs that came with the car and I noticed that it seems the front end sits higher than it did before. Car handles great, like night and day, but feels a little light in the front at speed, and while this is hard to prove, I hear a little more pronounced wind noise (might be imagined)
I live in Nashville and I am not finding anyone that I get the feeling is really confident that they can tweak the car. There are some great mechanics, but not the cutting edge type.
The car is a weekend driver and I hope to do some DE events soon but I am not a racer, just want to get the most out of this awesome machine. Can any of you recommend someone in the southeast that can work some magic on this?
Thanks a lot!

The units are adjustable and lowering it no problem. I read a couple of threads that said the ROW specs show the front substantially lower than the US specs, but when I queried both shops I am familiar with in town, they said they where not up to speed on that and only had the US spec. I need someone who has already learned all this rather than keep paying for alignments everytime I mess with the hieght.
I just did stock gt2 spec and left well enough alone.... I posted a thread with a JIC stage 3 + review....titled ....with my numbers. Dan posted them on his site as well. Dealers have gt2 specs (USA) and perhaps elsewhere in there systems. That is where I went because my indy lacked scales....no issues and very nice job was done.

I just about copied Dan's set-up (slightly higher...bad driveways and gas stations here in PA). It is great, so you have a non-vendor data point too. No issues day to day. I have my coilovers set at 2 clicks harder than full soft for the street and I really like the quality of the ride. My taste, fwiw.
Good luck.
