I got these a while back

<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1873841019" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1873841019</a>

took some "talking to" to get them to fit my 86 but at the end of the day they went in.
I love them!!!!

i have a brand new pair that i got for my 88 na and i just went off the road yesterday because of some ice, so i wont be using them anymore. i just bought them this past x-mas if you want them i live somewhat close and ill sell them for $300. i forget how far Lebanon is from Columbus, but we could meet somewhere in between or at least the shipping would not be that much.

The 88 944na struts will fit the 90 S2 if they are 8641-1414S. These are the cut-n-drill inserts. These are probably the $154/each fronts Fishey is referring to.

Good Luck!

yes they are the cut and drill inserts, and from what skip said they will fit, they are absolutely brand new just took them out of the box to look over them, i was going to put them on ebay but if you want them let me know, at least it would save you some money on shipping and tax.

It sounds good I just want to make shure its the right part and all 4 pieces both struts and shocks. (What kind of modification will I need to do? or is it just simply as easy as putting them in?) I would rather not ship them but I dont have a car right now. So I could meet you half way or you could simply drive to my house (witch is super super easy to find but it around 45m- 1hour away)

I can get all struts for $300 at a local shop brand new so I could just pick them up.

all four konis from paragon for my 89 shipped to my house cost about 540.

the fronts are the inserts. the rears are easy to install.

my friend owns a goodyear tire shop, and he couldnt get them for the 540 paragon price!

I dont think your local shop is getting all four for 300.
