Mine came with all 4 springs, this may not. Note good pricing and free shipping.

I'll definitely look in to that, thanks!
On the off chance anyone reads this from the area, I'll be in LA on Saturday and Ontario, CA (USA) for a few days after that. Any suggestions on evening activities/restaurants appreciated. And I'm in Jackson, TN until then, but I've already got a nice list of restaurants laid out here.

Worst part about this Cruz is it has hands-free Bluetooth but no Bluetooth audio.

My ebay RS is my office desk ornament, biggest pos that came with my car.
Used a o-ring to seal the valve (still didn't seal), and the adjustment adjusts the amount of travel the valve moves up and down No matter where I adjusted the valve it still wouldn't seal and would give me lean issues with MAF/Xede setup.
no ragrets on the FV

The knock off I had doesn't even say greddy on the side. The previous owner of my car put a junk unit on and resold his.
I grabbed the red limited edition too.

More info about my very fake rs...
Mine doesn't even have this 'fake' type bottom, it's just a black valve that has a rubber o-ring
The housing looks very similar to the red one on the right, it has the same diaphragm on the inside

I have an authentic greddy RS, and I like it. I have it venting to atmosphere and its not obnoxious at all, but I can still hear it, and it brings all the boys to the yard.
If you get a used one, and the diaphragm is bad, you can get replacement diaphragms for them from NGR for about half the price as they ripped off greddy too. Interestingly, their diaphragm seems better.

Sidenote: Say I used resbond on my exhaust manifold studs because they keep coming out with the nuts. How hard would that be to get out if I ever broke or stripped one?
