I apologize if this became a double post, 1st experience with the poll option. I would apreciate anyones experience with the (tien basic) and (JIC magic SF-1) coilover system. I have to choice between the 2 (06 xa)

 

anyone

 

I know somone has to have experience beteween the 2 setups

 

Jic is where its at. I will be getting Jic coilovers in the spring probably. I don't have personal experience with their suspension kits, but i have their exhaust and i recommend their products to everyone.

I have a friend with Jic coils, very very nice set up.

Go with Jic. Seriously. Can i say that enough?

 

i like my tein ss-p just fine

 

Go TEIN BASIC! Can be had for as low as 700 dollars. Bsides the great price, it GREATLY increases your ride quality in every way. The ride is smoother (whats a road bump?), it is also stiffer (corners like its on rails). And, you can safely drop the car up to ~3.5 inches. GO FOR IT!

 

The JIC setup comes with upper mounts (pillow mounts) the tien basic does not. What do those do, and do i need them

 

progress tech

 

yea again... wheres that kit darren?

im not optimistic of that kit as they cant even get it out after all the hype. its been too long and i think theyre day has faded. not only did they take pics of it with a big body kit on it to make it look lower, but then they take forever while everyones waiting on the kit. bleh for progress.

eh. whatev.

 

what are the pillow mounts for??

 

Exactly. Progress really did seem promising for a while, infact it was a kit i wanted. But they died down and out fast. No one has heard anything else since the release of those pictures. It may be a nice kit, but if the company can't get their act together and/or at very least let people know whats up, i don't think i would buy from them.

 

are those even out yet???

i saw them at the Longo Drag event and they said there were ready but is anyone actually on those??
