coilovers, short shifter, sideskirts, shift knob, bushings, trunk LOW LOW prices
 
ALL PRICES ARE OBO

As most of you know, my car got hit, I sold some shit, this is the stuff I still have.


STANCE Coilovers

SOLD

I got these coil-overs near the beginning of the December NEW, so not so many miles on them. However front passenger shock is damaged. I called STANCE, they said they would rebuild the shock. Worst case scenario, they replace the shock which will cost $200. The other three shocks, and the 4 coils are in great shape.

damaged one:

Man that sucks to hear.

PM'd.

Ryan2008 06-19-2010 04:46 AM

Damn man, that sucks. Very interested in those coilovers... If I had that one shock replaced by the company, would the other three handle differently from being broken in more than the new one? For example: 3 old tires + 1 new = unsafe/bad handling.

Thanks!
Ryan

You would just send the other front one in and have them test it to make sure they have the same kg rating. A gas refill is pretty cheap.

Shock damaged, wont matter.

I meant send the good one in with the busted one to get them balanced with the same kg rating. So you have equally fresh front shocks. that's what I would do/have done/recommend

Xander 06-19-2010 11:32 AM

any defects on the trunk at all? hows the fitment?

Think it'd cost much more to do that along with getting a new one?

Chad D. 06-19-2010 12:31 PM

they should inspect and diagnose it for free. If the good one needs a top off, regas is not expensive. 70 bux tops. It probaby doesn't need it I would suggest it though. I'm just suggesting the "do it right the first time". I have experience with used coilovers.

Ryan2008 06-19-2010 12:52 PM

Hmmm ok, I was just about to buy Megan Racing coilovers, I'm going to look around for a little bit for info on stance and get back to you Imput. New megan vs used stance - approx. same price... hmmm.... stance are hands down way better, right? I haven't read much on them or the adjustments

mscamp02 06-19-2010 01:01 PM

stance coilovers are very adjustable especially for the price, usually around 1k 1.2k new.

from my understanding megans are low/entry level systems and stance is a low-mid level system

Chad D. 06-19-2010 01:04 PM

Yes Stance is better. Call stance, get some info and pricing. I would get them but I have the JIC brand and did the exact same thing I suggested. I have done the same with 2 sets for my old rx7. I can't justify spending 2g's on shocks but refurbished ones for under 8oo bucks, for sure.

Yeah I only read a couple posts and decided I want these over the megan's for sure. Imput I know you said it's $200 to get it replaced but could you (or anyone else if you don't mind), call stance and just see how much it is to rebuild/match both fronts. Or maybe just replace it but still match? I would call but I'm stuck in Afghanistan currently with no phone.... :crying: I am very interested and have the full funds in my paypal at this very moment.

Thanks!
Ryan

Oh and how low do these baby's go? That pic of the trunk is with your stance's on?

Could you send pictures of the other 3 to my email if possible? lebel.ryan@gmail.com

Megans are garbage.

Thats the height I was at all the time, The fronts go a bit lower I think.

Ryan2008 06-19-2010 02:19 PM

damn that's like perfect. Ok I love the drop, as for the other questions though?

imput1234 06-19-2010 02:22 PM

I'll call stance and find out how much a rebuild on all the shocks will be, and PM you. Although I dont get the point.

My bad man, I guess I worded that wrong. The back two are staying as is. I would be sending both fronts in and either replacing or rebuilding the bent one and have them make sure they are evenly matched. Just wondering what the price is to match them (should be free, no?) and how much it is to rebuild that shock. You said replace completely for $200 right?

Thanks, Ryan

imput1234 06-19-2010 03:01 PM

Yea, to replace the damaged shock its $200. I dont know why you want to change the front driver shock.

Ryan2008 06-19-2010 03:44 PM

I just figured the undamaged front is settled more than the new one will be? Will it not make a difference at all? I'll just send the broken one in by itself to be replaced if so.

Either way... $200 is a definite? If so, I'll take em man. Got the funds now...

imput1234 06-19-2010 04:13 PM

^That is what they quoted me, you can call them and find out.

I would call if I could, I have no phone in Afghanistan. I'll try finding an email address and email them. I'll get back to you asap.

Thanks for all the help.
Ryan
