Anyone here running JRZ's? I love their ride and build quality from my GTR experience. Just wondering if anyone's running them and can provide feedback? Thanks.

They are probably out of reach for what most people would spend on coilovers, but I remember they have very good reviews in the Porsche community so you most likely won't go wrong.

yea but the quality and performace is second to none. It is an exotic piece suspension-wise, much like Aprokovic for exhausts. I know they have quite a few tiers of suspensions out, so there has to be someone with it...

Fixed. Even though my grammatical skills are somewhat suspect most times...

Yeah, sorry I don't have more information for you. My only hands on experience with them was driving one of my detailing client's 1996 993 Turbo with JRZs and that car was flat out amazing.

Just wondering how adjustable the singles are for street use and the occasional track day. dampening and rebound. Any noise? Do they ride harsh or smoother than other comparable coilovers (zeal, HKS, etc)

We use the JRZ 3 way dampers on our GT3 Cup and customer cars and they are simply amazing. Although we have a very experienced engineer that does all of the suspension setup which is the complex aspect of it.
I don't have any experience with the street applications but they derive from race dampers and you can customize your spring and dampening rates if you prefer. I had a long discussion with them at PRI and they have a single adjustable damper that is much more price competitive. They are starting to expand the applications for this new entry level set up as well. I might switch over from my TEIN monoflex to a JRZ set up in the spring just to have a system for our local customers to see in addition to our Porsches which is unobtainable for most. |

JRZ is about as good as it gets. There are a handful of professional motorsports grade coilover systems in the world, and JRZ is one of them.
Until recently, JRZ only offered a double, triple, and quad adjustable coilover in the $6000 to $14000 range. We've used the doubles in our Time Attack GT-R, and every Porsche GT3, Evo, and STi that comes through our shop destined for serious track use. Over the past few months, JRZ has been working quietly on a set of SINGLE adjustable coilovers for the high level consumer market. These coilovers use the same body, concepts, engineering, and technology as their motorsport line but with a combined single adjustment for compression/rebound. The result is a system that far exceeds the current shocks on the market, at about a $3340 to $4080 price with main and helper springs, and dividers. The pricing varies if you prefer a solid top mount or prefer to reuse your OEM hat for better sound isolation. For street use and fun track day use they can't be beat. There are even some teams using the singles for street class Time Attack. We will be testing the first set on the Forged 370Z in just a couple weeks. We are currently running TEIN Mono Flex's on our 370Z, so it will be interesting to see the differences between the two. Here are some pics of the JRZ Singles for the STi as an example: And for those wondering what a $14,000 coilover system looks like here you go.
