JIC coilovers - stiffness/harshness
for those people out there with JIC FLT-A2 coilovers on their Z --
how is the ride? Stiffness isn't a problem, but a harsh ride would probably bother me. The stock suspension's tendency to "bounce" is somewhat harsh. I'm hoping to improve the handling and fix the bounce simultaneously with a coilover install.
can you adjust the compression/rebound when the car is on the ground, or do you have to jack it up?
thanks for the help.
I also really need to find a shop here in denver that can cornerweight.

even on full soft?
hm, that's somewhat disappointing. I might have to talk to a few other people with FLT-A2s on other cars just to compare experiences before I make a decision.

I have mine on full soft all the time (except when at the track), and on DC roads, it's pretty friggin harsh. Once I get out of the urban areas, the roads are smooth enough where I don't notice the stiffness. What are the roads like in your area? Are there lots of potholes, buckles, et cetera?
