Need reviews on Tein SS or JIC
My lil'bro's been *****ing about his suspension for the longest time (I don't blame him either.. his suspension is dead). I'm going to buy some coilovers to install them into his civic hatch to finally close the book in this matter.
So far, I feel that the tein's and jic are the the top two choices.
Owners of either systems, can you give a quick review? pros and cons.
If anyone else has a different coilover setup, please list it too. True coilovers only. I am not interested in coilover sleeves or spring/shock combos (I want to avoid any possible future complaints or regrets).
Thanks in advance.

Tein ss are really soft and good for daily driving, but they suck for competition. If he just wants to slam it then they are pretty good, but not for racing.

Just curious, but you mentioned the sustec review. Isn't the sustec by Tanabe? Although I don't have personal experiences with Tanabe coilovers, I felt that it should be one of your options as well besides the two you're considering now. Just thought I'd give you the heads up.
