I was going to purchace the spl kts c/o's today but then came across some zeal B2 c/o's for $400. The guy selling them said that two are going or about to go. So I figure $400 for coils, $400 for rebuild, $100 or something for shipping, and another $100 incase ish needs to be replaced. So the price is pretty much the same for the kts'. Just wondering if you all thought it would be worth it for the semi-outdated zeals or just grab the kts'?

Yeah, I saw those on CL. I was thinking about it, but damn. $400for coils and probably $400+shipping to rebuild...

no sense you save a couple hundred to rebuild used coilovers imo

you can always find used coilovers for 800 or around there, better to buy something used that works versus something used you have to fix

Sounds like a pain in the ass for used parts. But if you feel used Zeal > New KTS then jump on it.

Get the KTS or buy my used Teins. :) You practically bought the whole car almost.

I guess the cheap price lulled me into wanting them. I better go ahead and hop on the kts' before the exchange rate goes up.
Var: I should've bought the whole thing. I still want you sways, lsd, roll cage. And probably more that I can't remember now. Damn I need more money.

your thinking is wrong....it will cost a lil more than that to rebuild/ship the Zeals, not to mention waiting...
get the KTS, they are readily available and that way you'll have FOUR new coilovers, instead of 2 REBUILT and 2 USED, meh...

$400 to rebuild Zeals?

Even if theyr'e not grey-market, I think its still a bit more than that... and if they are grey-market, then forget the whole idea.

Get KTS.

It was just a random estimate, didn't meant for it to be written in stone.

I had gotten the estimate from endless where it stated that it would be $100 per corner for rebuild. But it could cost more if they where in need of extra parts or grey market. On another note hopefully my kts coils will be in, in a few weeks.
