I just got these jic coilovers well i have no idea what model they are. 3 are the same and one isn't they have the same spring rates and are both non adjustable(fixed damping) i think the red/goldish ones are sf-1? or al's 1'a? i have no idea what the last one is its a greenish silver color. they are all jic's and for my s13. Can i use these and run them? idk if having one of them different but same spring rate will make much of a different. any one know the models or know if i can mix match them.

1) post pics2) I would never run mismatched coilovers... the mismatched spring rates would really mess up the ride quality. LOL... pure ghettoness

hey yokota do know which model that is? i think i have sf-1's as my front coilovers and rear driver side coilover because they are not damper adjustable and they're reddish with red collers. The greenish ones too arn't adjustable but the bigger piston seem like they won't work im not all out race but a weekend to back road warrior. I tried looking online but i guess jic discontinued them.

damn 3 out 4 coilovers looks stupid...
