[fs] dropzone lowering springs

Post by 4gotn »

i bought some dropzone lowering springs a while back but they dont suit me :/
i like a really stiff ride so im going to try some eibachs but before i do, just so i dont have springs sitting arround my house, i want to know if someone is interested in buying them.
they dont have more than 5k miles on them so their brand new and redish.
i paid about 100 for them (which is what they list for on ebay) but am willing to let them go for about 80-90.

btw: they drop the car 1.8" all the way arround

after (its a night time pic because it was night when i took them..will take more in the morning)

Why is it a GI post.. why not make it a FS post cause that is what you are doing. Its a low price item..

ci but mostlikely you just have bad struts
but if you want them ive not yet received a buyer :mrgreen:


push on the corner of your car... if it sinks and then bounces..bad struts...

brand new KYB GR2's just installed because I thought that was the problem. It doesn't bounce, just hits super hard.

the struts are there to help reduce the springyness so if the struts are bad it will bounce
if the springs are bad no bounce

lol I know that all too well, I'm knee deep in vibrations analysis for my Mechanical Engineering degree right now.

I found some stockers for basically just the cost of gas to go get them, so I'm going to have to pass. good luck with the sale.
