I dont think its so much a bunch of broke blokes but ppl that have to weigh the odds reasonably. I personally would have bought them if I hadn't already spent money on MX3 shocks and they have contrasting #s for mx3vsZx2 that solo bought them for. Not only that but your facing a diminishing market, supply and demand is the basic rule of thumb, your 3 biggest advicits all sold their mx-3s! That should say something right there. Not only that but my cars been broke into twice and already threatened to be totaled for interior damage, that alone will make a person think twice about what they invest in a car.

Rather than be disappointed in your market, look at it reasonably, you already know its not there any more and youve left yourself. You've gotten your enjoyment out of these and they even made their way back to you b/c your new owner took them off, Ild cut my losses and take the best offer at this point.

Not sure if that was meant for me but i got them back as I was lending them to him until he got the suspension he wanted. Also, I am selling them for the price I want to sell em for.. I dont wanna go lower, Id rather just throw em in the closet or the trash just cause Id feel better doing that then getting pennies for something that I saved for and bought new. Call me greedy if you want, but I dont believe in giving s--- away that has value

If there wasn't so much feedback saying how harsh the ride is on these, I would scoop them up. I know coilovers aren't designed for comfort, but I don't want to replace my a-- in 2 years from riding around on them. :lol:

On a serious note though, GLWS! Coilovers aren't cheap, so a used set is definitely worth looking into. Go for it people!

You know, I've been wondering... Has anybody used both GC coilovers AND the Ksports? Just wondering what people thought in comparison between the two.

I don't think there's much of a comparison of full bodies vs sleeves, at least with full bodies you get a proper valved shock and adjustments, hence the price of the GC's being a lot less.

Well I appreciate the honest answer, I haven't touched suspension yet, since my other projects tap my finances too greedily already. Someday, maybe 2013 :)
