I have cliffys on my met pro. I think they are a good idea. I dont see how shooter lane cliffys could affect gameplay. I also have them on the playfield for the mystery hole. Only positive things to say. Zero downside. Well worth it. In fact i ordered them for the TFLE i picked up recently. Need to put those in this weekend.

Cliffy's rock!
Well, i have a full Cliffy set on my SM and its been working without a hitch. HOWEVER... My shooter lane protector; the one that goes on the side of the right rail, as turned out to be useless. Its protects the wood, but it also makes the ball bounce right back into the trough. Which then freezes up the game and i have to manually eject the ball via switch test. I took it off and havent had a problem since.

-If the game is not up to date, then load your zip drive and get the latest code.

-Clean the ol girl as much as you can, wax'r up good and get some new balls.

-Google new mods

Congrats on your new game.

If you put a Cliffy in the middle of the playfield on Indy (target bank protector as I recall?) it has to be perfectly flat or it can affect the ball sticking in the little loop behind them. (Special mode hole or something?)
Trust me.

Congratulations on your new game. May it bring you lots of great times.

LTG : )

Congrats switch! I wish my wife would get excited about a new title.

Exciting to get a new game delivered to your house! I hope the shipping process goes smoothly. Your other pins are going to feel sad and neglected...

congrats! warm up the flipper fingers!

Yes congratulations on the new game

Awesome that you stepped into the market.. LOL

I like IJ4, and it is alot-o-fun... good looker too.

Kudos on the pin wife, my GF is super cool but if i held a gun to her head, ( a loaded gun to boot), i couldnt get here to puch the start button LOL

Congrats, and your shipping ordeal, it will be 99% just fine, dont sweat the small stuff

post some pics when it gets home

Congrats! IJ4 isn't the deepest game and does not get a lot of love here on Pinside, but I personally like the game. Out of curiosity,did you buy the machine from Game Room Guys? I had my eye on that one... :

Necessary mods: Cliffy's, shaker, Pinball Pro or Flipper Fidelity sub.

Congrats!!! Live life... Play pinball!

I played a beat up IJ4 pin at the Garden City Arcade in garden city beach, SC. I liked it a lot. The first time i got that huge Ark multiball with like 8 balls.... Wow. Big freaking grin on my face!

Externaley powered sub.. way better !

I'm really thinking about makine IJ4 the final machine in my 3 machine line up along with LOTR and Hobbit. I plan to eventually get rid of my Earthshaker and Whirlwind to fund it.

Any update to there lineup. It's been about 3 years since my last trip to Surfside. Last time I was there I played LOTR, Nascar,IJ4, and POTC. I love the Surside, Murrells Inlet area!

Congrats on the purchase! I too am lucky and in the club where my wife is into the hobby!

And. Me a current ij4 owner
Id recommend inserts in leds and gi s in bulbs

Oh here she is been there for a year so far

Agree completely. Stern did a great job with the theme and some games you just need to be able to play and have fun and not worry about a lot of things.

I did buy the game from game room guys. seems to be the nicest one I have seen at that price with that low of plays and the shipping is included to my door step so why not.

When you said HUO and low plays, I figured it was the same game. I was sooooooooo very close to pulling the trigger on that one myself. Others will disagree with me, but IMHO I think it was good deal given the condition. It's also great to hear the sellers were willing to box it and take care of everything for you.

Enjoy your new game when it arrives!

Congrats. If I had a lot more space and a lot more money (neither of which is going to happen, I am quite sure), I'd put an IJ4 next to my IJ and let guests play them both. Each has its own qualities. Congrats on the purchase!

I was just there over Thankgiving week. The upstairs was closed and i think there may be a pin or two upstairs... But downstairs it was just POTC and IJ4. I got my name up as the 2nd High score on POTC. Played a couple days that week with the father in law.

My family goes to garden city surfside beach every summer. And then every once in a while we will do Thanksgiving down there too. I love it. So relaxing.

Arcade is closed for the winter, drove by it today. Hopefully they will add more machines when it opens

Enjoy !
