Whats the big differents between these two? Why so different in price range?

P.S. I know most of you have FLT A1, whats the differents between A1 and A2?
I am planning to buy a set of coilovers soon, just want to hear opinions.

 

One main difference is that A2 has 15 ways of adjustability while the A1 has 5 ways.

 

The FLT-A2s come with camber plates on the front.....also the JIC's are made of higher quality material IMO.

 

First, there is no comparison when it comes to the JIC FLT-A2 and Tein SS. The SS is like a Honda and the A2 a Mercedes.

FLT-A2
Inverted monotube damper
15 way adjustment
Front upper pillow ball mounts
Front camber plates
Full suspension travel at any height setting

FLT-A1
Twintube damper
5 way adjustment
Front upper pillow ball mounts
Front camber plates
Full suspension travel at any height setting

Tein SS
Twintube damper
16 way adjustment
No front camber plates (unless purchased seperate)
No front upper pillow ball mount (unless purchased seperate)
Must use OEM upper mounts and parts
Ride height is adjusted at the spring perch which reduces suspension travel and changes the spring rate.

 

JIC rocks

 

How's the ride with JICs?

 

dude, honestly..do you read half of our threads?? recently both Igor and I have commented on the ride, as well as MaxSE03 and others

 

he he.......yeah I was reading that thread too~~

 

So interms of ride and performance, should I expect that A1 will do as good of a job as A2 in everyday driving? Perhaps on the track A1 will be some how short of A2 performance wise?

another question is, is Inverted monotube > Twintube damper? in design.

 

for all intensive purposes A1's are more than adequate for daily driving and also more than adequate for track racing
