I have a set of 1986 Turbo shocks/struts/springs from a 35k mile car. $150 for the struts/springs, $50 for the shocks. These would make a nice, inexpensive upgrade for a NA car. If interested, PM me for a shipping quote.

I think these struts will work on 87 & later NA cars. The part that clamps to the spindle is 18mm, so measure yours to be sure. This thread sheds some light on the Turbo-to-NA compatibility issues:

The strut mounts are different on 87 and newer (late offset) cars, so I don't think these struts will work on late offset cars unless the strut mounts are replaced (and they are expensive new). I found this out the hard way (paid for late offset struts that didn't work on my '86), so I just happen to have a set of late offset strut mounts available if anyone wants to adapt sayporsha's struts for their late offset car. PM me if interested.
