if yuh decide to go with coilovers, lemme know how it goes.
That could land you a set of D2, Ksport or BC racing coilovers.

I have heard reviews on Imprezas, not Legacys. Curious as to the dynamics.

^^price?

I have ADAH looking into a set from the states (shocks..not coilovers). But i need a US part number...not Japanese.

Yup, I buy from them on occasion with no issues either.

You'd think ppl would actually check them, right? Unfortunately some folks (apparently) suffer from a complex whereby they have difficulty "buying online".

Maybe if Customs was a bit more consistent.
I've had parts skip duties and vat(no arguments here), and on the flipside - I've also had parts come in where duties and vat was almost 60-75% CIF. I have no idea how the firetruck they calculate the figues? It is supposed to be 30+15

^^^ Boy, I had a ball for Chistmas with my Skybox company, ZERO customs charges. Heard from a guy on the inside that they just simply had too much volume and just wanted things OUT! Worked out well for me :lol:

^^ yeah.....the service rep could not even explain the difference........had no choice could not get original replacement locally and did not have the time to wait for them to be imported.

Postby **tr1ad** » February 4th, 2011, 10:01 am

thank god for massy discount

BZ · Postby BZ » February 5th, 2011, 10:43 am

^^ still..........that price is sure rape for a pair of standard OEM rear shocks. What discount % could they offer to make that a decent purchase?

Postby **tr1ad** » February 5th, 2011, 11:57 am

up to 40 % for me :wink:

fozzy2010 · Postby **fozzy2010** » February 5th, 2011, 2:34 pm
