Hey guys,

I just put these coilovers on yesterday, and they are coming off tomorrow.

Don't get me wrong, these JIC Cross coilovers are great, but I would like to lower my car much more than these allow. With the correct settings, they perform very well. For those who are looking to lower the car without completely slamming it, these are perfect for you. At the softer setting, these are very streetable. A huge benefit that these coilovers have opposed to others is that the coilovers are height adjusted by the entire shock body, so suspension travel is not compromised no matter what height the car is at.

I'm looking for a quick sale since my new suspension comes in next week. only $850 picked up, located in Torrance.

Here is vividracing's review on them.

"The Porsche coilovers are what we call Motons on a budget. Installed and driven by a cup car tuner, he said, "I was suprised at how fast reacting these dampers were. The car handled amazing over my test loop. I would certainly recommend these to street and weekend track guys." Vivid Racing has always support the JIC coilovers because of their development both on and off the track. JIC has proven its success with its own Porsche 996TT and 997TT. Most recently, their 993GT2 RSR Drift Car has been featured on SpeedHunters.com testing out the suspension and power of this exotic machine.

The JIC Cross coilovers feature a 16 way adjustable dampening shock absorber. A major benefit of this coilover is the monotube damper. This shock is more rigid and faster reacting then the lesser quality twin tube damper that is found on other coilovers. In addition to the quality internal construction, the JIC Cross Coilover feature front camber plates and rear pillowball mounts. The 6061 aluminum mounts replace the factory rubber strut tops seen on other coilovers. Not only do these offer a more rigid handling characteristic, they also improve steering response. The front camber plates will allow you to get up to negative 3 degrees of camber with an easy adjustment. The coilovers feature linear springs and the spring rates are directly setup to how the shock is valved. Each coilover also features a helper spring. Also allows for a wider range of higher spring rates and for a smoother ride. In addition, this prevents any type of bump steer which can effect the corner of the vehicle. This can give a progressive feel of the suspension without dealing with progressive springs.

The biggest question customers have is... "Will this be to stiff on the street for me." The answer to that question is no. The coilover rides amazing on the street. With the adjustable dampening you can soften it up to work well on the way to work or dial it in to out perform others on the track. Having personally run Bilstein, KW, and JIC Cross in a Porsche, my experience can help you make a quick decision."

Sorry for my ignorance, but do these work with PASM (particularly the version on a 997.1 C2S)?

It doesn't look like they do, as there are no wires shown in photo.

No, these coilovers do not work with PASM. You will need to get the PASM disabled from the dealer using these instructions. I got it done by the dealersihp and everything worked out perfectly.
