Default RSA Shocks and H&R Springs

I am looking for some RS America shocks and H&R Springs. Does anyone have any for sale?

Thanks,

Where can I buy the M030 shocks at a reasonable price. I am looking for the red H&Rs.

Let me look in my garage. I think I have a M030 suspension laying around in a box somewhere.

I guess these are what I am looking for.

Is this a decent price? Anyone ever bought anything from these guys?


Thanks,

Jon

I would buy new instead at this price. Not worth the trouble to reinstall if it does not work out. The labor and costs to R&R and to align the car are easily into few hundred dollars. It would be a shame if one or more of the shocks are not working well or fail prematurely. Suspension upgrade/swap is one of those things you want to do just once. Think of it along the same logic of buying a slightly used clutch kit at 80% of the cost for a new kit.

you could buy new Billy HDs and new H&Rs for ~$100 more than they are asking for used.

Partsheaven is a top notch Porsche dismantler...but that price should be negotiable......too high for used parts with no knowledge of actual mileage.

shox.com has very competitive pricing, try them. I agree with the others, the price of that set up in the Ebay auction is way out there. I sold my M030 shocks with H&R reds for $310 on Ebay about a month or so ago. That hopefully can give you an idea of where the used market is right now...

I know, I wanted to buy yours but I saw your ad a little too late.
