Just make sure all parts are with the kit. Adjusters, etc.

[Saamjohn]

Very good price, especially for 1k of miles.

Almost every second hand pair of coilovers seem to have been on the car for only 1k miles...

 

[imprezaworks]

Or 5 years, which ever comes sooner lol

Just like every 2nd hand engine "seems a strong one and pulls well!"

 

[Saamjohn]

Well yeah seems odd , will check con

Pessimistic lot you are , all joking aside I'm collecting them so can turn the sale down if they look or seem way older than that haha

They'll be fine mate. Can't see there being an issue after 1k of miles.

Unless they used them to go off road and through rivers!

@Saamjohn How did you get on?

@Saamjohn How did you get on?

Didn't get them in the end , a few un-budgeted costs came up meaning I couldn't really afford them at the time and didn't want to keep the bloke waiting. Starting shift work soon so going to put some more money together and see what about , how did you find those Gaz's?

Was these off a trophy by any chance?
