FS: ground control set-up for use with Koni shocks
FS: Ground Control kit off of my car, used with Koni shocks (I am keeping the Koni shocks), included are:
- Four sleeves, (two front, two rear); with Koni shock adapter
- four perches
- allen key and also the spring perch wrench fron GC.
- four urethane bushings
- 6 springs (all are eibach, from ground control):
- two "semi-progressive" 9" rate: 364 in/lbs (it's stamped in metric, but I did
conversion)
- two ERS linear 8" rate: 400 in/lbs
- two ERS linear 8" rate: 200 in/lbs
I had this setup on my Si, 364 front, 400 rear. the springs are longer than the typical setup that GC sells, I asked for longer springs, so it rides a little softer on the street (which is important if the car is 97% street, 3% auto-x).

Re: FS: ground control set-up for use with Koni shocks (ryan12321)
the reason there are six spings: i initially bought the original "street friendly" kit with the 364 front, 200 rear set. then I wanted to auto-x more, and bought just a set of springs for rear (400) from ground control, and just swapped them out. i'll separate one set of rear springs out, depending on what the buyer of the kit would want... (if someone wants the 364+400, I'll sell the 200 springs separately).
as for cost: i paid about $330 for the original kit, and $110 for the extra springs. so, how about $200 shipped for the setup with four springs (your choice which), extra springs for $55? please make offers...

i could probably take $240 for all of it. it should fit an 88 CRX, if the koni's are the same size as 99 Si Koni's.

also, I am looking for the rings (4 total) that go over the Koni C-clip. The C-clip is the ring that goes into the 3-5 little grooves on Koni shock body (adjusts height by about an inch). The ring I am looking for goes OVER the C-clip. and then the stamped Koni shock perch sits on that. the rings are not needed if the Koni shock is used with ground control kit, and i don't remember where I put mine. But now that I am switching back to regular springs (ITR OEM springs), i'll be needing it... i'll be willing to buy some/reduce price if someone has some for trade (that you won't be needing if you use the GC).

I'll take the 400# springs if you are willing to split the package. How about $60 shipped to AZ?
