What I got from an email to V.Bob today....
"Yes I sell the JIC setup. I am the largest JIC distributor for Porsches (or so JIC tells me J ).
Sounds like a fun car. Between the weight and power yes I can see where a good set of JICs would help quite a bit. As a weekend fun toy I would go with a little heavier spring setup. I have lots of 964/965 guys with the JICs and they work great for what you are doing. The JIC setup is $2795."
Guys at JIC actually had them quite a bit lower in $$ a couple months back. I have attempted to reconnect w/Paul there and I'll tell you what I hear.
Any other suggestions are welcome.

I got them as a special directly from Zeil but they aren't doing it anymore.
I never rode on the PSS9s but took them off in favor of the JICs. I like the build quality and the height adjustment with the bottom mount is a great design.
There are a couple vendors on 6speedonline that carry them too as well as Imagine Auto. $2100 is close to what I paid. When was that quote? Supposedly the prices went up in 08 and the vendors cannot provide the same discount.
I'd pick up the phone and call.
Good luck.

I also got the rear spring adjusters but prob. won't use them. $60 shipped if anyone wants them.

I bought mine from Stephen at IA. Since I live very close i had IA install them as well. I believe Stephen can get you as good a price as anyone. Give him a call.
BTW, I really LOVE mine. I have the car lowered but not enough to be a problem (now that I have the 930, the 964 track days will be limited), I bought the "street springs" nadhave the dampers set about half way between hard and soft. Big difference from the stock turbo set up and still fine for the street.

I put these on a few months back and am quite pleased with the results. First autox (in the dry) went very well;

and 9th overall for the day.
I had simliar QC problems. Wrong lower brackets on the rear and loose adjustment nuts. As AGR pointed out it took a while but eventually did get resolved. I bought mine thru Dan at Vivid and he was a big help in getting things taken care of with JIC (and they had the best price).

I'm going to be selling a used set of their competition coilovers that fit a 964 soon if anyone is interested. They maybe have a total of 7500 street miles, 6 DEs and a half dozen auto-x days on them.

Been a little tied up with things recently (that whole life thing that gets in the way), but should be around more now. Please check your PMs.
