You'd have spent less money if you'd started with a Spec C!


Very nice find.

Thanks I weren't looking for a set but when I saw them my heart started thumping hard so had to have them
Where's the fun in buying a ready made one these wouldn't have come on a spec c unless it was a RA-R sir brown pants, what you reckon these are worth then? I've allready put how much they cost me on my local site so I can't lie... how much you reckon??

£200? That's a total bargain mate! blimey. Gotta be worth £500+ all day long in that condition. Even at £500 they'd sell on straight away I think. Great find.

They certainly won't be as harsh as Tein coilovers. I'm not a fan of Tein coilovers personally, always been too hard for me. I had the Tein S-Tech springs on my std WRX shocks and they were great.


You'll love the new bargain shocks. Can't believe you got them for that price. Madness!

Great deal on the shocks, Z.

Who has the silver RA wheels for sale, where are they located, and how much do they want for them?
