    ***jim's Revalved Bilsteins***

    Hello my fellow 3geezers.

    Last summer I bought Jim's Revalved Bilstein struts from him with the intention of putting them on my car. From the time they arrived to the present, they have sat, in the boxes he shipped them in, in my closet. I am now offering them to you, the 3geez community, for a couple reasons:

    I've decided to upgrade my audio system to it's peak levels of performance before I jump into the other areas of the car. That being said, I just purchased a $235 amp that I'd like to pay for the best way. I've also decided that when/if I drop my car, I won't be doing it so extreme that his struts will be needed, so it'd almost be a waste.

    I am offering them at $190 shipped. I paid $195 shipped last summer, and they haven't been used, so I figured that would be pretty fair. Jim paid upwards of $300 (I believe) when he bought them, and revalved them, combined.

    These struts will allow you to lower your car further than any other strut, including the Koni Specials. You can use these struts to drop your car 3 inches or more, without having to worry about blowing them.

    PLEASE PM ME WITH OFFERS! I will take offers as they come in in the form of PMs!! That means FIRST COME FIRST SERVE! You can also email me @ [email protected] but PM's come first as far as who I offer them first to.

    I accept Paypal, Money orders, and Western Union. PLEASE ONLY PM me if you're SERIOUS!!

    Thanks, and have at 'em!

    Bobafett jumped on them first, so he's got the first dibs.

    If for some reason it doesn't go through with him, I will open this back up, but judging by Bobafett's overall "member"ness (he's been here a long time), I would say it's pretty sure that he's got them.

    Damn that was fast...

    yeha i am lucky to have internet at school!

    this is good. i will have the right struts for my car, and amber can use my old struts with the old h&r springs... until she gets ground controls and needs to revalve some konis or something...

    thx for the great deal.

    Gee it only took me 7 days to sell the parts off my wrecked accord last year. It's interesting to me to see these struts took all of 17 minutes to sell. Good stuff sell's fast, don't it

    I always wanted the things I've sold to be appreciated in a certain way, glad to see these being resold in kinda that way.

    Chis, don't make any plans for the rears, I have a idea, I need get ahold of another member and speak to him. Send me a email.

    Hmm... Jim, do tell. I'm interested in what you're brainstorming. PM me if you'de like.

    Oh yeah, and if noone else follows through, I'm sure I'd be able to scrape up the 2 bills. I'll sit on that waiting list I suppose.

    Chris, I just sent the email.

    To everyone else, this isn't a new idea, it's more to do with a pair of parts I have that can only benefit one person and one person only. But I made a promise to another member and I think he may not need me to honor that promise. I have to check that out first. Sorry for the confusion. I would have pm'd chris, but in the past he hasn't responded to my pm's, so that why I made it public. I didn't mean to get other's hopes up.

    Mike, lets rephrase that, what you need is a major overhaul.
