TireRack just shipped me my order of 4 nice Koni Red shocks.

I checked their website and the shocks are IN STOCK (all 4 corners)

Don't hesitate and get them before they run out of stock.

Those shocks are out of production. This is your last chance!

i ordered a whole set the night this thread went up. It was alot of money especially since i have to worry about the exchange rate, but it will be worth it. I was almost ready to buy them before when Jim said that they were discontinued and would be very hard to find. This was my second chance so i'm happy...and about 750 CDN in debt, but it'll make mastercard happy too :) They sent me my order shipment confirmation email just a few minutes ago, so i should see them in a few weeks...i hope there's no trouble coming over the border. Next is a set of H&Rs and then i'll be ridin' nice and smooth....yeah baby!!!!!!! :super:

Yeah, I'm getting a set of H&R's hopefully from bobafett. He has to wait to see if another guy is gonna pay up or not, and if he doesn't, they're mine :D

I'll fight ya for them :) ...no just joking, sounds good man. I would get springs that go lower, but i live in the road construction / pot-hole capital of the world, so it's not a good idea to drop 2 inches or more and expect my car to stay in one piece. Plus, Jim recommended the H&R's, and i go by whatever Jim says when it comes to suspension. :D

Is that $107 revalved or just normal?

I think it's normal...it didn't specify on the site though. What's the difference, anyways???

I thought they needed to be revalved for the Ground Controls to be good. I hope my pay check tomorrow is a lot of money b/c I think I will have enough. I just gotta do some bugetting to see how much money I have from the strut bars. Gotta make sure I have enough for materials and for shipping. Don't worry.... I won't buy the konis if I don't have enough. I'm not an ass.

Remember Koni's revalves them not Tirerack.. I forgot the actual fee, but it's pretty expensive. When u order them from Tirerack you have to make arrangements with Koni and have Tirerack ship the Struts to Koni.. So we are talking about $1000 bucks worth of great suspension.

I think I will just get bilistiens. I don't want to do this on an impluse.

With the HR's you dont need to revalve the koni's.

If you use a coilover like GC's or dropzones or any coilover with similiar spring rates. It is a great idea to get the struts weather they be koni's or Bilsteins revavled to the spring rates.

but since you are getting H&R's, you should be fine.

I might just wait and spend the $600 to get the revalved Blistens. The Konis were like $800 revalved. It could be 1K like Matt said but I rember it being a 3 digit #. Shake the ASS :D
