Springs Group Buy - £90 per full set
-
**I shall reserve you a set under "interested" until I have a price in my hands - remember though that the price could go up if there's less uptake.
Oh and they'll powdercoat my set purple. If you want a set coated, let me know your colour - it'll add a little to the price though.**

Powder Coat in Black is fine by me. :wink:
Keep me in the loop as regards to pricing..

**Okay, I've had the quote back. You all braced and ready for this?
£90 per set :shock:
That's including VAT, including a stock black powdercoat finish and -40mm springs are no different in price than stock replacements. Delivery isn't included.
However, this price only holds true if we can shift 10 sets - reduce the quantities and the price goes up. Frankly, at this price I'd buy two sets (but then my MX-3 is staying with me until one of us dies).
That's £90 per set of four :shock:**
-
Whoa!! :shock:
Might be worth posting up on mx-3.com about it? Could get a few more people in.
-
**"Whoa" indeed.
They have all the sizes on file now, so if there's any other "special" requirements, like mine, they can do them but expect to be paying £35+ a corner for them. I'd prefer to concentrate on this group buy first.
Even if you weren't considering changing your stock springs, for £90 (plus delivery) it's almost insane not to. Nightstalker's were almost corroded to the point of failure - and that's just about the youngest MX-3 you can buy (1998).**
-
I'd like some please, -40mill also.
I know nothing about shocks, but any chance of getting them a little harder? or would lowing do that anyways?
-
Woo!!!! Result… Just need 10 peeps to buy a set.... or, I'll buy 2 sets.. Standard and -40mm - 2 down 8 to go.... 8)

If you're lowering for looks, 40mm on stock rates should be fine but personally I'd look for higher rate too for those occasions I'd be spanking it to prevent it bottoming out. If you'll be spanking or tracking it you'll want higher rates and/or uprated shocks. I can get for quotes for any spring height or rate you want.

Normal 40 will do then good sir. (another xmas pressy I know i'm getting lol )

Mine is -40mm and i have to push it quite a bit to get it to bottom out (except for speed bumps :( ), never tracked it though so cant speak for that.

Going to have to drop out of this.
I has crashed. :(

**Oh sphincters. Everyone alive and well I trust?
I'm "not currently in the UK", but I shall forge ahead more with this next week when I am.**
-
**Right. I'm back now.
We need more interest to get this price. Three of ten sets does not a group buy make and at this rate (no pun intended) they'll work out more expensive than my own custom-made nutter set. Which is bonkers.
Even the newest of our cars is twelve years old - the oldest is nineteen. If the springs haven't been changed in all that time you'll have a saggy ride and run the risk of failing an MoT on excessive corrosion (I've even seen some which have snapped). For £90 and a couple hours work a corner (or £20 bunged to your local friendly mechanic) it's almost nuts not to…**
-
I totally agree.. am still in as and when we get the numbers…
-
Hate to do this but I'll have to pull out. :( Decided to sell up in the new year.
-
If I dont buy sam's springs I will be in on these :D
-

£90 GBP is $146 US at todays exchange rate.
I wouldn't like to guess the postage costs tbh…
-
If this offer is still going, I'd be interested in the -40mm.
-
**The original prices, as quoted, were for a group buy so discounted for bulk.
I can give the guys a call if you like and see what a set of -40mm will cost - stock spring rates or stiffer?**
