Default P1 shocks and springs

Hi all, I'm thinks of selling my p1 inverted shocks and springs. I can't find any for sale at the moment and I've done a few searches but cant find what they're worth.
What should I put them up for?




Shows the condition of the shock itself, I also fitted grease nipples in the rear shocks.


Thanks Jack

Mileage and age might help.

Don't worry about what others have sold for or are advertised or even what somebody else thinks they are worth.
Come up with a price that YOU would be happy to except for them and see how you get on.

Depending on mileage etc they should be worth at least £300 all day long. The better the condition , the more they're worth. They cost an absolute fortune new so don't give them away...not easy to find either.

How do I tell? They were painted at the same time as shock bodies.

the springs would have had a label with part number on but I guess if they've been repainted it won't be visible now

Im leaning more towards swapping for some coilovers I think, I want the height adjustment of the coilovers to get the impreza sitting right.

They're still on the car at the moment, but it won't take long to remove them if anyone want to sort a deal out.

I'd avoid swapping them for coilovers unless you intend on putting money towards it.
The only coilovers you'd get straight swapped for your shocks and springs will be dog ****.

Very few coilovers work well on a road going impreza and the ones that do work are big money.

Keep the dampers and replace the springs. Search on here for eibach springs that were on a group buy. Ideal set up rather than fitting cheap coilovers
