They ARE height adjustable I believe the range is like 1-2 inches but the struts are NOT adjustable.

They go for a bit under $2000 CAN I believe.

latez.

I saw the JIC suspension on overboost.com and I could have sworn they said it wasn't height adjustable, but that depending on the application, the system would lower the car between 1 and 2 inches, correct me if I'm wrong, cause If it is height adjustable I think I might just get that system...

They say "non-adjustable" but they are referring to the damper. What company in their right mind would make a non-height ajustable coilover?!?! Just look at any picture of it, you can clearly see the thread and perch where the height is adjusted.

I was confused at first also.

Well one member of ours is prototyping the SF-1. He is sponsored exclusively. They are height adjustable. And yes i've seen them in person. I cannot pass out anymore info other than that for now. If you need more info, check the latest threads in our forum.

well that's good, cause i was starting to think that JIC was out of their minds...and yeah, i think that the add I saw was kinda misleading in that aspect though.

Well believe all you want but i've seen them in person. JIC's HQ for the USA is here SoCal. Since my friends Solara is being used for the prototype, there can be changes made.
