Looks fantastic, great choices! Come out with us on the 28th, I'd love to see the upgrades in person!

Actually these S1's are similar to the Racing Harts used by Porsche on the 993 RS and others. Great looking!

How do you like your JIC C/O's set that low? Still a great ride?

Jason

 

Hey Jason, the thing I love about the jic's is the way that ride height is set. Conventional coilovers are lowered by compressing the shock body so ride quality is compromised since you're shortening shock travel. With the JIC, shock length and travel is fixed and the car is lowered by lowering the entire shock through the shock carriers. So no matter how low I go, I get the same amount of shock travel whereas on my pss9's, at this ride height, I had very little shock travel left and the coilover was bottoming out on bumps.

 

Thats exactly what I was hoping to hear.

How would you compare the ride to the Bilsteins? How low have you gone on the JIC's, is there much lower you can go?

And finally, what is the ET of your rear wheels? Looks like they are around ET45?

Jason

 

I've got the JIC's on 2nd softest and 5th softest out of 15 settings, and its slightly more stiff than the pss9's on the 4th and 5th hardest settings. These are more competition based than street so they're not comfortable, but their not necessarily uncomfortable or jarring either. I'm happy with the way they ride and i've yet to encounter bumps big enough to make me go softer. This is the lowest i've gone, but the front and rear has another 0.5"-.75" left. The offset on the rears are a +48, so you're close!

 

I thought you were crazy when you sold your last rims since they looked sooo nice on your car. But I have to say these look better, great choice. I am kicking myself for not buying your old rims. Vic

 

I hate to sound so juvenile, but I think I just shot a load in my pants

V35, great execution on the mods!

 

No disrespect to V35 as the car looks GREAT the way it is, but can someone pshop with out the wing? I'm more of a wingless 911 kind of guy
