ok my cousin was recently in japan (courtesy of the NAvy and while over there he found me a set of used coilovers. they are just spring and sleeve. they no longer have an decipherable writing on them. all the box said on it was "spec d" in english, of course-cuz i cant read japanese. other than that a bunch more japanes writing. the vendor told him to mate them with some GAB struts or some kybs.

anyways long story short, does anyone know what type of coilovers they may be? they are blue spring and sleeve only, not real coilovers. i guess they could technically be any off brand cheap coilover since they dont have a name. but if anyone has any suggestions. i'm all ears. thanx

how much are they? you can get coilover sleeves in the US for pretty cheap.

he already bought them a couple weeks ago, he just got home recently and gave em to me, as a wedding present (i was an usher @ his recent wedding)

i think they were roughly around $200 or so, but my cousin's roomate on base, was with him and he knew the vendor. i dont know what he actually paid for em, didnt ask, it was a present.
i gotta ask him the name of the shop he bought em from and what city he was even in.'
these were def. bought in japan, not america

Why dont you borrow a someones digital camera and take a picture of the writing on them, I'm sure someone on here can translate it. Also..you can take a pic of the zenki lip and add that to your "for sale" thread.
