Their not exactly new.

There's already a thread of review on the coilover.

Search and you will see.

I ride on JIC's right now, and I'm switching to the greddy type-s at the end of the month.

Three reasons why:
1. the fronts are shot, and dealing with JIC and getting them rebuilt sucks. turn around time ftl.
2. greddy offers their version of the EDFC
3. The dampening adjustment on the JIC's is on the bottom of the coil. Which makes it a) prone to getting hit by rocks, speed bumps, etc etc. b) a pain to adjust

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM JIC.
They have the worst customer service ever and their coilovers are made in korea. nothing wrong with korean products but when they rebox them saving it is from japan, it makes you wonder.

I have the JIC FLT-A1's on my S14. I love 'em. But that's just my opinion.
