  • oouuuch. Did it physically damage the car at all?

  • Destroyed a wheel but did very little body damage.

  • What kind of response do you get from JIC when something like this happens? Refund/replacement? Coilovers aren't supposed to go like that, that quickly!

  • Response was terrible. JIC did not stand behind their product at all. We ended up switching to KWs and customer is much happier, not only with the quality (the mounts are much stronger on the KW and the welds cleaner), but also the performance.

  • what happened? is this about coilover spring? did the perches unlock? lol?

  • Rear strut snapped in mid-corner-- the shock tube right above the wheel hub mounting bracket.

  • itst he driver not the ride,,,,drive good cruze good ,,,,wanna race ,,turn that beast into a full rally spec u will never have all those probs ,,,,,been there tried all the other options ,,,,,since i have pulled my beats off the road to track, by changin standard parts to full custom prob goes away,,,,

  • Holy hell. You were quick with opposite lock, so props on that.

  • that is pretty costly, my megans ran me about $825

  • Amazing, i have the EDFC so on the road the ride nice and soft and on the track they are hard as a rock. $2500 tho plus the EDFC kit, real expensive.

  • how are the flexs treating you? i'm running megan racing coils..

  • Yes you have a point, i run Tein Flex Coilovers on my WRX. And i guess i didnt realize how many times i used the word fuck. i guess i wanted to emphasize how dangerous that situation can be lol. my bad.

  • first of all, seeing that so many people have been having problems with the jic coilovers, i think it'd be smart to just invest in a different brand rather than get them replaced with brand new ones and end up in the same position again. secondly, how many times must you use the word fuck in one sentence?

  • Thats fuckin gay. i'd take that back to JIC and tell those fuckers to replace all four for free. thats fuckin dangerous at that matter, imagine you were comin up to a wall, fuck man your car would of been toast.

  • sorry to see that, but its racing, stuff breaks. even formula one has these kind of times.

    Hope to see the subaru out and about soon!

  • say it with me , both feet in
