Default Spec Boxsters used parts

Greetings All,
I currently own a 1997 street legal Boxster that is undergoing a gradual conversion into a Spec Boxster. I am interested in purchasing used Spec Boxster parts, if available, at a reasonable price. I have already acquired and installed several safety enhancements listed below, as I intend to utilize this vehicle in Trackday (DE) events in the near future. I would appreciate the opportunity to acquire additional Spec Boxster parts through the purchase of used items in order to minimize costs. Kindly inform me of any parts you may have available. Feel free to contact me via private message as well. FYI- I am located in San Diego.

Here are the enhancements I have already installed:
- Porsche factory hard top
- Brey Krause Boxster Roll Bar Extension
- new Racing Seats
- New Schroth Profile II 6-point HANS compatible race harnesses for both sides
- New Momo Steering Wheel
- New MOMO Hub Adaptors
- fire extinguisher
- Porsche Short Shifter
- Squared Boxster Spec wheels set up

Thank you.

I have the set of four PSS9 with the Bilstein blue springs they come with along with all it's associated hardware that I just took off my car, all in good working condition with about 50 days on them. Also have a set of Tarett front drop links (non-extended style). Could do $1,300 for the PSS9 and $150 for the drop links.

Yes, you can press the LCA bushings out. Must be replaced with OEM rubber bushings for SPB.

Can you buy the stock bushings though? I have never seen them sold individually.

Per YouTube , one has to buy the entire unit. That's a bummer

Sorry no Bilstein kit. Only the Tarrett MCS coil and spring package (which is the alternative, better option in a lot of peoples eyes).
