hey guys im planning on buying skunk2 coilovers for $175 and kyb gas shocks for $160 from this guy. they both have 5k-6k on em. is this a good deal?

 

you can probably buy them new for that price

 

What kind of KYB's? Any reason why you need coilovers as opposed to lowering springs? Unless you're planning on changing your ride height every now and then you'd do better to buy a new set of lowering springs.

 

i guess your right. but 4 kyb shocks for 160. i consider that a good deal still right? he didnt tell me what kind they were. just gas shocks.

 

Good deal and KYB do not mix.

 

If they're gr2s then thats a terrible deal, you can get 4 gr2s new for $160-170. Honestly I wouldn't put used shocks in my car, I just installed a set of Tokico Illuminas, they're awesome. Save up your money and buy a set of them, trust me it's worth it.

 

ok so i guess i should just grab the shocks from him and buy seperate lowering springs. what springs would go good?

Spend the extra $135, it's worth it.

 

wow thanks a lot man. haha. is 1.5" drop that noticeable?

 

Very much so, and with a 1.5" drop you won't run into any problems. The Illuminas are great, all you need is a screwdriver to adjust them takes like 5 secs. Put em on soft for driving around town then firm em up for the track.

 

sweet im gonna get these. thanks a lot for the help. now all i need is some rotaaaas.
