WTB/WTT: Lowering Springs for Protege 5

[ratz1984]

Let me know what you got, and I'll let you know if I'm interested...

Really looking for Racing Beat (not mazdaspeed) or Tanabe GF or NF, but open to others.

Also, willing to trade for my Mazdaspeed springs.

 

[ratz1984]

Photos up of my Mazdaspeed springs... still on the car... I bought these new and installed for only 3 months of use... and I'll clean them up before you get 'em!

sorry for the confusion, carry on!

how about skunk 2 coilovers, or a set of JICs, i thinking of selling both, cheap.. let me know if you have an interest -j
you can call me anytime 502-599-2221 -jason

 

[ratz1984]

I was always curious as to whether the slip on coilovers are vehicle specific or a universal fitament...

 

[autoxes]

Me too. I guess they'd be universal as long as the sleeves have the right inner diameter, i.e. roughly similar to the outer diameter of the strut.

 

[WRCprotege]

yep, they fit our cars struts with any problems.. they are stiff 8kg/mm front and 6kg/mm rear which is like 460lbs front and 350lbs rear.. they dont feel that stiff to me, but thats what skunk2 says they are.. then again i have been on these for about 70,000 miles now, so im use to them.. heres a pic of the car now on the skunk2s, i took it yesterday, i also have a used set of JICs coilovers - with shocks,camberplates,etc for sale here as well.. these are shofter that the skunk2s 6kg/mm front and 4kg/mm rear ..about 100lbs/inch less front and rear from the skunk2s..

[ratz1984]

So you're saying $40 w/ no trade... just straight up?

[red95_240sx]

plus the MS springs :- /. or some OEM+$10... prefebly the MS...

 

[ratz1984]

I'm confused... you would want more cash with the msp springs than you would want for some oem p5 springs?

From what it sounds like you want msp springs + $40 or oem p5 springs + $10, but you'd prefer the msp springs? Then why'd you want more money in addition to them?(crazy)

plus the MS springs :- /. or some OEM+$10... prefebly the MS...

 

[red95_240sx]

what happened, i edited the +10, and left the prefebly part in...

i wud want less $ with the MS springs. 40 bux. but if u give me OEM, id want 50. I wish my mom didnt throw away the OEM ones for me. it really hurts the sale.

 

[ratz1984]

Ok, makes sense now... I'll let you know what I decide...

[red95_240sx]

oh wait oh wait oh wait. i just went out in the storage(with a pile of rat turd to make a bag of rice), and their there. all xcept one front one. so whats up. u only need to pay $50, shipping, and send me one spring, which is cheaper than 4. ur looking at about $80.

 

[ratz1984]

Sounds like a pretty terrible deal...
