Rockin the JICs, Pics of the drop

A few members wanted me to post a few pics of my drop. I just had a wash and a wax done so now's as good a time as ever. I don't mean to be a bandwidth ho, but here they are









And the magic behind the drop.

I was joking about the purple thing, I think they're great. I got them through Avalon Racing, they post under that SN here on the org. They were great, great price, great service.

looks really clean, I kinda like the springs. How do the JIC's ride, my toser's aren't bad but they are not for people with a heart condition

nope, don't bottom out, full strut travel even at the lowest height, unless I F with the spring perch.

chris-they ride awesome, its stiff, but nothing that would require a warning for the heart patients.

I can still bring it down more, about an inch more, but i have speed bumps to worry about. EDIT:Thats what you were talking about with bottoming out

I read some guy with an RSX got screwed by magic. They will not give refunds no matter what. Something on his suspension would not tighten all the way and he had to send back 2 times and they said they did some stuff but it did not work, then they offered him to BUY the replacement part. That just made me angry.

I heard that as well, but that seems to be an isolated incident, all other owners of JIC Magics(IS300s) have done nothing but rave about thier customer service.

Very nice! Now you better get some rims that cost more than your coilovers.

Mine car doesn't bottom out , it just takes bumps in the road kinda hard, but takes dips in the road real smoothly. I think my 245/35/19 tires may be a factor in those harsh bumps

Yeah I'm not looking forward to putting a lower profile tire on my car. As of now I have the thick OEM 50 series. Its good to have a bit more rubber, I just dream of wider wheels.
