Tien vs. JIC
Not really concerned too much with looks, more interested in preformance. Any input guys? Also, where would I be able to find more information about the JIC setup? Thanks for reading my thread,
Derek

It depends on what you want to do with them. Racing or auto-x'ing. Get the JIC's. If its just for street then get the TEIN or even the B+G's.
I had a chance to drive Dom's (Dpro) G20 with the B+G setup and it feels pretty good. I'd say even better than the TEINS. But time will tell to see how they hold up.

The B+G's feel stiffer but I was only driving on the street and never got a chance to push it.
The TEIN's have the adjustible shocks which the B+G's don't. I don't really have a solid handle on the B+G setup yet as I haven't had it on an auto-x course or a race track yet. After I do one of those I'll have a better opinion. But from what I felt from Dom's car it looks OK.

yah, please let us know because the thing I noticed about my P11 is that the car corners well, but as soon as I push it and accelerate, understeers pretty bad.
my lude can take corners much faster and with almost no understeer.

cuz your lude has TEIN Type HAs...duh!!
 anyway...I have the JIC coilovers on my G20 and it is pretty stiff...actually, you can almost say stiff as hell!!! but there's is a difference though, between "rough" and "stiff"...rough is like riding on blown shocks and the stiffness that hte JIC provides, actually feels pretty cool because the car feels very responsive. I also had the TEINs before, and although you cant really compare JIC and TEIN (Tein is shock/spring set up witha djustable height and dampening), personally, i thought the TEINs are perfect for the street! no comment on the B+G set up.
