yah mind telling us the pros and cons of your JIC's against the PSS9's?
got also good quotes against statefarm
you may see here, www.insurance-quote-free.com
for my honda acura since way much cheaper.
But assuming that when Bilstein does PSS9s for the NC that they follow the example of their kit for NB then we may assume that they will not include the front pillow ball aluminum top mounts that are included with the JIC and that PSS9 will not be adjustable length shocks. Instead, expect PSS9 to include threaded shortened shock bodies...but static length.

Okay, in response to requests for pics of NC closer to stock height...here you go! These next two pics are the NC at 25 1/4 inch from ground to lip, which is 1.25 inches below stock height.

Note for future customers. When adjusting height for the rear you can jack up either the entire rear or one side at a time and it works out fine.
However, in the front you must either jack up the entire front or disconnect the sway bar if you jack up only one side at a time. Otherwise, there is enough preload from the sways to keep the A arms from fully lowering and this leads to inaccurate setting of front height (spring will seem like it is snug when in fact it is not).
