Hey lads,

 

Been a while...

 

I've got Nik  (skillionaires) JDM Billies and Pink combo in my wagon... loves a corner, loves a roundabout... doesnt like the high quaility ( not) roads we have here...

 

i still have the standard springs... is it worth a swap over? do the JDM billiles perform ok with the standard springs??

 

Cheers...

I had the standard springs with the Bilstein struts on my wagon when I bought it and it was more than sufficient for daily driving. I wouldn't see any reason otherwise, plus it gives you a bit more clearance and cushioning for the roads which would definitely assist in solving your issue.

 

I'd personally stick with the STi pink springs, but if it's annoying you than it basically comes down to your personal preference. Structurally there'd be no issues at all.


Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

Hi,

I couldn't say outside that suspension was complete and original. If you're getting rid of it let me know.

Would be a shame to mix and match with those JDM tasties.

Cheers,
Nik

Whatever you list it at, buyers will always try to knock it down by the thousands.

So by saying you want 6.5k..... the buyer will see it as anywhere in inxs of 1k less than the advertised price.

 

I only adveritse as $$$$ firm.  ONO opens the door to many tire kickers.

 

Having said that.... with rego costs and the space an unused car takes up....... Sometimes it's better to cut and run  ;)

 

 

Good luck with your sale, mate.
