Default price check on stock suspension

I just upgraded to the ohlins coilovers a few months ago and I'm wondering what my stock setup is worth. the stock parts have just over 16,000 miles on them.

The cost of shipping. Just so happens I'd like to go back to stock.

It is worth what someone is willing to pay. I sold my set of stock springs for $275 - a new set would be over $800 plus tax / shipping from Suncoast as a reference. I'd think an entire stock set up would be worth something - but not as much as you selling your Ohlins when you sell your car, and put the stock back on.

4x4/bus suspension at that...

I went and had a look for the cost of the Ohlins R&T suspension - more economical than my Bilstein setup was. Do they ride better?

You're going to be lucky to find someone willing to take them out of your garage for free. Same thing with a stock exhaust. There just isn't any demand for the stuff.

I sold the stock springs from my 964 on the local buy and sell here, got $1 for them, the guy was so happy with them he gave me $2!
