Post by rossco19872011 » Thu Oct 10, 2013 9:24 pm

At long last after years of banging and knocking the DRC has given up, I'm in desperate need of some coilovers at a decent price?? If anyone knows of any being sold or any cars being broke i'm interested. Thanks Ross

You could try FK Silverline. JC runs 'em and has no complaints.

£430 inc VAT.

That each or is there something wrong with them?

I'm looking at replacing my soggy H&R's but that price seems too cheap to me, though the build does look better than most. I guess it's all in the ride/damping which can't be any worse than I have at the moment Image

I think you are right, Mav. The 'X' have adjustable damping.

Ah that's more like it. I've always had good experiences with KONI shocks on my other cars so that's reassuring.

£750 is still pretty good

I have a used set of PSS9s for sale. One damper needs rebuilding, which u can send to Bilstein UK to do for not much, so u can have them cheap. PM me.
