As a long time JIC distributor and installer, we are offering the new JIC CROSS Coilovers for Cayman owners. My boss Dan; owner of VIVIDRACING has personally used these on almost every car he has owned. 996C2, 996TT, RX8, Drift S13, EVO, STI. The Japanese racing suspension has reviewed well by many in the Internet and Competition community. In fact JIC USA owner, Jon, has been racing and tuning Porsche since 1984. His drive to continually grown and advance suspension for Porsche has led to one of the best coilovers on the market.
The coilover is JIC's flagship coilover for the European product line. The coilovers offer 15 Way adjustable compression and rebound. Easily accessible on the front and rear coilovers, this gives the ability to make necessary adjustments with ease on or off the track for optimal handling conditions.
One thing the JIC CROSS Coilovers offer that the some of the competition does not is front adjustable camber plates and rear pillowball mounts. These are the plates on the top of the shock that replace your factory rubber mounts. The front strut tops are made out high grade aircraft aluminum and include a race bearing for longevity. The front camber plates install just like your stock strut tops would, however these can give you up to 3 degrees of negative camber and provide a more rigid and improved handling. The rear pillowballs are similar but without the camber adjustment.
In addition to the high quality features that the JIC CROSS coilovers offer, they also utilize a Monotube Nitrogen Gas Damper. This monotube design is more durable and provides better movement then the conventional twin tube style. All parts are anodized or finished to prevent any corrosion from occuring. The lower shock bracket is easily adjustable. Ride Height can be adjusted in minutes with the included spanner wrenches and you can also adjust the spring perch for spring sag. All JIC CROSS Coilovers come fully assembled
-The coilover system includes:
-front and rear coil-over shocks.
-upper pillow ball mounts.
-coil-over collar wrenches.
-shock adjusting tool.
Got mine about week ago.
It will be in the next shop install with GT3 control arms & brake ducts.
Currently doing - Mantis sump, underdrive pulley & Quaife.

What about ride height adjustment? What's the minimum and maximum lowering? I already have PASM. Does it work with PASM?
PASM - Porsche Active Suspension Management
This active damping system offers continuous adjustment of individual damping forces based on current road conditions and driving style.
The driver can choose from two setup modes, ‘Normal’ and ‘Sport’, using a separate ‘damper’ button on the center console. ‘Normal’ mode is designed for general road driving and circuits with uneven tarmac. ‘Sport’ mode is intended for smoother track surfaces, where the harder settings help eliminate pitch and roll.
In either mode, PASM continuously evaluates the current conditions while automatically selecting the corresponding damper rates from the respective set of mapped values.
A range of sensors are used to monitor the movement of the body under acceleration, braking and cornering maneuvers, as well as on poor road surfaces. The PASM control unit then evaluates this data and modifies the damping force on each individual wheel in accordance with the selected mode. The result is a significant reduction in body movement as well as a better grip on the road.
For example: if ‘Sport’ mode is selected, the suspension is automatically set to a harder damper rating. If the quality of the track surface falls below a certain threshold, the system immediately changes to a softer rating within the ‘Sport’ setup range. When the quality of the tarmac improves once more, PASM automatically returns to the original, harder rating.

No it doesn't. Bilstein has a PSS for PASM equipt cars.

Thanks, I've checked the Bilstein one, lowering is too low for me. I have PASM, so another 15mm would be just nice, but I don't want to do shortened springs only, I want shocks to match.

JIC doesnt have a version that compatible with PASM?

^^^ JIC does not have a current version for the PASM, however they are working on a solution for it. No ETA. Most people just turn it off, thats what JIC did on their 997.
