Is anyone here familiar with JIC Cross suspensions? They have apparently gotten popular with the rear engine Porsche crowd. I have a good friend with a 993 that installed them this Winter, and he was extremely happy about them after his first track event last weekend. His mechanic, who has somewhat of a specialty in 924/944/968s, is interested in installing them in one, and I'm considering using my car as the guinea pig.



Thanks,

Mike

The jap crowd seem to like them but I haven't heard anything from the Stuttgart folks. It is always cool to be first but I'd rather spend the money on something tested and known to perform well. Unless I got a kick a&& deal of course.

I'm looking at products from trusted resources and the Bilstein Turbo Cup setup is currently highest my list.

The adjustable JIC setup available is priced less than $2K which makes it attractively priced since it also includes their camber plates.



Anyone out there using JIC ?

The only data point I have is for the 996tt. They had issues with the early unit leaking and needing rebuilds fairly quickly. However, later versions have shown to be more reliable and the handling is supposed to be on par with KWs and/or the Motons without remote reservoirs.



YMMV
