how much is it for jic's installed
 
Im thinking of the JIC Z33FLTA2H coilovers. I was quoted for 2300 installed. is this too much? also I cant lower my car too much. Are the coilovers already lowered a certain amount? Also, does anyone know how much they weigh compared to stock? and do i need a camber kit?

coilovers are usually preset to their suggested heights. however it is highly recommended that you double check the length prior to installation.

$2300? that's for the coilovers and install labor? right?

installation is typically a couple hundred bucks.

as for weight comparisons.. do a search.

coilovers are not that bad to install... if you really dont want to do them it should only be 200 max..

I've got the FLT-A2s on my 07. There are a couple of different spring rates that are available. Make sure you select the one for your driving needs (street, track or both), it will make a difference in your ride. You should do extensive reseach prior to shelling out 23 hundred bucks, unless you've got the kesh to burn. Basic reseach would indicate (among other features) that the JIC's are ride height adjustable and that a camber kit is not needed but can be applied. No camber kit on mine, clearance with my 20's is fine and real happy with the overall product. Good luck! Oh BTW- it is a buyers market right now, make a couple of shops battle for your business, make some calls and get printed quotes and have fun watching that 2300 go down to 1995 (or even lower) installed.....

What are you planning on doing with your car that has you figuring you've made the best product choice? Not to be mean, but Jic's are yet another suspension product I would not open the box to look at, let alone install if they were given to me for free. It is impossible to recommend something else since we do not know what you plan on doing with the car or what you want out of a new suspension.

A basic advanced search using the word JIC and targeted to the suspension section would have pulled up the following thread.

if you're slammed camber kit would be yes. front A arm , rear Camber bar and toe bolts.

front tie rods? not really unless you want crazy steering angle for drifting.. else stock rods will be ok.
