Well i got my JVAB super BitchN coilovers about 2 weeks days ago. so far I've won my last 3 days of racing (rallycross .. waiting for Idaho rally eagerly) , $300 in subaru contingency and a nice lil trophy.
What makes these coilovers so Super? and so Bitch'N well they are Green. yep patented Green paint makes you go super fast and win races. I noticed at my rally cross Sunday people were complaining about how rough the course was, I didn't notice.  the spring rates + valving is really *Magical* your tires stay on the ground and relatively level at all times, even if your chassis has to move quite a bit. , tires on the ground = WOT time , and extra fun. (again its mostly due to the patented green paint ) the only way to get the awesome green paint is to buy some coilovers from JVAB, he coats em with the paint (created from pixies, and unicorns) and BAM, your coil overs will kick ass.
Also I know they are intended for Rally Use, BUT the car also felt great on a spirited drive of Highway 49. its a little 2 lane road that connects I80 to US-50 with a 55 speed limit and numerous recommended 10 mph turn signs. its SUPER twisty. car felt Great during that drive too, it really hugged the road and was great over the many Crests on that drive. (tires just hug the road , non stop) I also took my lil Imp up a jeep trail shortly after install. Again these do great. I'm looking forward to what should be a very fun Idaho Rally, now i only have one knob to twist (the steering wheel) |
