MXV, if you're revalving, hit up eBay.

mxv 09-09-2007 02:58 AM

no i wont be ill be keeping the rates pretty low to keep costs down :(

cjernigan 09-09-2007 03:09 AM

Ebay coils and sleeves?
I need some cheap suspension soon. 6ULs coming and there's no way i'm gonna rock em jacked up 4x4 style.
Goodwin racing sells konis.

mxv 09-09-2007 03:17 AM

ok miata is the cheapest i can find so far at 480 a set.

Savington 09-09-2007 04:23 AM

See if you can score a set of blown ones off eBay and have them revalved to the Race specs. You could then run eBay coilovers with Eibach race springs set to whatever you want.

thats what I would have done knowing what I know now. As it is, I have tein basics and im considering having the fronts re-valved for 600-700lbs springs.

revalve is a whole lot more expensive than a set of new koni's. FCM charges like $750 to revalve a set without the adjustable pistons...

Ebay used...its cheap, konis are pretty damn tough too.

firedog25 09-09-2007 12:24 PM

If you're looking for a decent price with a factory warranty, steer clear of ebay. Not a single dealer there is "authorized" and factory warranties will not be honored. I bought my Bilstein HD's from www.eshocks.com

They had fair prices, a bit cheaper than most, and are authorized dealers of everything they sell.

rspeed is where I got mine, they were the cheapest for me but I did luck out cause I didn't have to pay shipping.

http://www.shox.com/

$537 w/ Free Shipping. Bought my AGXs from them about 3 years ago... They ship kinda slow, but were easy to deal with.

Rage_Kage 09-09-2007 11:20 PM

good-win-racing.com or
shox.com

both are very good on price

I hate the koni yellows. if I were to budget shop for shocks, I'd find some used tokico illuminas...

the yellows are just not damped right for ride comfort and handling as I found out on my E30.

cjernigan 09-10-2007 10:44 AM

What do you think of some new KYB AGX from jdmwerx on ebay and Ebay coils with sleeves for a cheap setup?

y8s 09-10-2007 11:08 AM

i also hate the AGX -- had those on my alltrac. :)

Splitime 09-10-2007 11:45 AM

Buy used ones... then send them with a friend who is competing in the AutoX nationals... revalved for cost...

200 for shocks (cupkit, so springs etc... also)...
60 bucks for revalve...
260 for new Koni SPSS3 shocks... awesome.

cjernigan 09-10-2007 11:54 AM

I don't have a friend competing in AutoX nationals.
Won't you be my friend?

sbrian2 09-10-2007 12:12 PM

I'm going for the 4th staright year, but they will only revalve at Nationals for cars competing, so no "bring your buddy's shocks" take all their resources.
