FS Local: Vishnu Valved JIC Coilovers
I'm selling my Vishnu valved JIC coilover setup that was on my WRX wagon. This sytem can be run on either a sedan or wagon and has custom Vishnu spec'd valving and 7kg front and 6kg rear spings. The JIC coilovers have independant height and spring preload adjustments. The dampening is 15 way adjustable as well via ***** on the bottoms of the coilovers.
This system will give you unparalelled handling on the track and off. You will, of course, have a slightly harsher and noisier street ride, but that is the compromise you make when going to a coilover setup. The real benefit is on the track. I cannot say enough kinds words about the transformation this setup made on my car.
If it's such a great thing, why the hell are you selling it Mike? Well, as some of you know, I recently traded the uber-wagon in for an STi. With the power and torque of the STi, and the abilities of the DCCD system, a 7/6 coilover setup will be a little soft for the track. I am stepping up to an 8/8 setup. While I could just change the springs on the Vishnu JIC's, the valving would then be out of range. I may be sticking with a custom JIC setup since i have been so impressed with this past setup.

From Vishnu's website:
Vishnu Suspension System..........$1850*
If you’ve ever gone on a test drive (aka “hot-lap”) with us, you know how hard we drive and how far we push the limits of the vehicle. Now imagine how thoroughly engineered, tweaked and tested our very own suspension system must be. It took us no less than two years to release a product that we would be proud to put our name on. And this is it. Custom-built by JIC to our spring rate and shock damping specifications, you will not find another suspension system that offers it unique combination of immediacy, refinement, balance and comfort.
************************************
The kit goes for $1850 new and has been on my car for about 8 months. That includes about 10,000 miles and 2 track days. I am offering this kit at $1,500 obo. It includes two spanner wrenches, the dampening adjustment tool, and FREE rear camber bolts. I am located in Sacramento and can deliver to the Bay Area if need be. I will install this kit for free for the local folks. There is no warranty, implied or otherwise, with my installations. With your help, we could get it done in less than 3 hours.
Here's a pic of the wagon in action with very little body roll:
