bren is it possible to add a bit more discount if you can get a high volume of people in for the group buy like maybe 35%?

Bren,
I bought a set of these coilovers last year for my 97 wagon, how much would I be for the camber adjustable top mounts to suit my car. I would just order direct not through this group buy. Cheers

We have the following spare, no GC8 Im afraid but we do have some GC8 in stock and another batch coming early next week. Theyll be at normal prices though, not at GB.

5x GDF 05+ STi 6/5
4x 00-07 (not 05+ STi) 6/5

If youre in a rush then we have RM Series and ER Series in stock to fit your car and have a batch of the BR Series arriving next week. These arent part of the GB though so will be at full retail. If you want a cheap kit then the GB shipment is due late June.

If you want to set camber then youll need some means to do so, be it camber bolts, adjustable rear arms or adjustable top mounts.

Bren, can you still get stiffer springs for these? I bought a 5/4 kit off ya but am now wondering whether I should've got the 6/5 setup. Can you supply a set of '6' springs? How much and how easy are they to fit?

Yeah we can do 6kg.mm springs, theyre £30 a piece. Theyre easy enough to fit, just whip the top mounts off, pull springs out and replace Youll also need to reset the spring platform.

in your first post after confirming the price, page 3 or something, you said the adjustable top mounts were £60 retail.
is that not the case anymore?

I have inverted GC8s 6/5 and love them but crave some more negative camber at the ****

Bren thanks, I would only have bought the BC's at GB price as it would have been worth ut etc. Looks like I'll have to survive with my koni's for now and save for some KW's as I'd have been going for the better spec BC's.

Thats an upgrade price from rubber to pillowball camber adjustable, the cost of the rubber mounts can be removed from the price of the camber as we arent supplying both types of mounts. It costs more to buy the top mounts outright.

I can do a deal on some ER Series if you want adjustability. As used by Norris Designs on his Evo race car

£696.85 delivered inc vat.

We will be taking payments Sat 6th June, the shipments due to arrive in the UK on Sat 13th June, it takes a week or so to clear customs and be delivered to us. I expect the shipment to be here around Tuesday 23rd June. We aim to turn round the consignment same day we recieve.

Hi Bren

Saturday wont be a problem, cant wait now.
regarding these adjustable top mounts tho, ive just realised i didnt go for the upgrade but it was because i was told it would make the ride less comfortable however i have been told by a few subaru drivers its deffinatley worth getting them for future tweaks and it makes for a better/more adjustable car...
whats your advice?
and if it is a good idea, can i still get the upgrade ?
many thanks Bren, looks like its going to be a busy month

Is there any difference between rear top adjustable and rear camber bolts? obviously apart from where there situated. Do they do the same job?

The allow you to set rear camber. You can do this with camber bolts rather than the top mounts. The rear camber top mounts can occasionally rattle. Either way its too late to alter th ekit now as we have no GC8 camber adjustable ones left. The only thing we could do would be sell a complete additional pair of rear top mounts at £87.20.

The top mounts have a greater range of adjustability and also offer a more solid mount than rubber but camber bolts provide sufficient range of adjustments for the majority of users

Thanks for getting back so quick bren, i understand, thats fine.
If i was to have the additional top mounts would you be able to post them to me at the same time as the coilovers i.e are they on the shelf?
if you could do them for £75 and include them in the postage i will snap them off you.....
Please?

I can include them in the postage but Ive already discounted them so cant do them any cheaper or Ill have to do the same for people who bought kits previously and now want to upgrade. I have to offer the same deal to everyone to be fair. However I made a mistake and didnt give you the same discount Ive offered those guys above so theyd be £81.75, not £87.20
