JOM Coilover Group Buy 2

[be34st]

Just put the spring in. Take a look at you're rear springs it will all make sense.

[wille28]

how can you run without adjuster the rear give me info i wanna do that

[CHIF8008]

running no adjuster in rear. and about half an inch left on front to go down on the sleeve





just installed skid plate. sits 2 1/2 inches from the floor. now i will adjust all the way down and have a piece of mind

Anyone have pictures of these coilovers installed on a 4 door e30? Thinking about getting these for my beater when will the new shipment come in?

^^...Really?

I'll get some better ones for you though.

Huh? I hope you aren't talking about I5

Yup. On the way into work I go 167-N -> I-405 to 518 (I think it's 518... the airport exit area that ends in Burien?) to I-90. And going home I hop on I-5 and cruise down to 167 via I-405 or stay on I-5 to 18 -> 167-S. It's a mob ;)

Finally got these on and I am satisfied. (sorry about the crappy pic)

Gonna tweak the setup a little bit. I want it to sit like this. And Now I'm in desperate need of a lip.

Thought I would throw this in here.

Fronts all the way down, no spring pads
No rear adjuster nut, no spring pads

The fronts are fantastic and mine are still going strong with 80+ miles daily driving on them to Seattle from Tacoma on some of the worst highway stretches in the country.

Oh yeah, far better than stock. I went from stock suspension with an S50 to JOM's with an S50. Night and day difference. That said, I'll say this once again, I would definitely upgrade the rear springs within the first 3 months of buying the JOM setup. ANY weight in the rear end of your car will cause serious binding of the rear springs. They are very, very soft for rears.

I'm pretty low as it is so I'm very impressed with the setup.

Coooooooooool! :D which springs to put in back?

What about spirited driving? will it be a lot better than stock? Im not looking for racing performance but I dont like body roll? I might be getting these if someone that has them tells me whats what :P

How's the install on these? Pretty Straight forward?

As straight forward as any other suspension install. You'll need a 15mm, 17mm, 13mm, 22mm... variety of wrenches and pliers. No cutting required of the front strut housings.

It's not a GC kit by any means, but it works well enough for street use.
