Gen 5 rear strut set-up.

Post by Nik_L » Fri Jan 18, 2013 2:43 pm

As above really. Looking to see if anyone has 2x rear struts with springs (and possibly top mounts if they are different to those fitted on my coilovers) lying around.

For a Vti with 4ws if theres any difference's.

Preferably as close to Fife as possible. Cheers.

I got some stock one sat in the garage. Would need postage tho as I'm nowhere near fife.

The shock you have are my old ones. Got top hats too, you might want a full set tho, the teins were pretty hard

Cheers fella but i would think postage could start to get pricey with the weight etc, and i don't mind travelling (within reason) to pick some up.

Yeah they are pretty hard like. N/S/R is in need of a rebuild as its banging, and i suspect the O/S/R is going the same way. Fronts seem to be ok.

Hmm will the standard rears be too soft with the Teins up front?? Its just really to keep the car rolling just now for work. Are the top mounts different too on standard vs the teins??

You you still have my number? I have the standard struts and a set of lowering springs as one of the rear springs had half a coil broken on it

Aye Craig i still have your number bud. Would you split the rears (just after rears as the fronts seem to be fine) and how much you be after for them? Could probably nip through tomorrow for them.

Oh yeah newkid, for some reason i had forgot about couriers, i just had in my head post office prices lol.
