JIC Magic Coilovers
Has anyone heard of "JIC Magic Honda Civic 2001-ON (EP/ES Chassis) FLT-A2 Dampers"
Their price is about $2000. US
What do you guys think?? Why are they so expensive???

Yes, I at least know of three people that have them, me, boilermaker and someone else. They are worth it if you plan on racing. If not, don't spend the cash. I think boilermaker got his from Dezod....but don't quote me on that. They are top of the line. They aren't at good as Endless or Buddy Club, but are comprable to Apex N1 or Tein Flex.

Moving right along, they're good, but they need a change in front spring rates if you're going to use the EP3 kit in the EM/ES. I don't think there's an actual EM/ES kit.

Rep Power: 434 There were some quality issues with a JIC titanium catback for the S2000 on s2ki.com forums. The weld came off from one of the hangers, and when the guy took it to JIC, they just welded it back on (this takes away a lot of the rigidity in the original weld). Needless to say, the hanger broke again, JIC welded it...AGAIN...and it, AFAIK, broke a third time.

Rep Power: 412 I am not saying they are the best company in the world because even the best companies have quality issues. But they are damn good coilovers.
