Well hello

 

I'm Lee from York and I have a V8 Soarer, met a few of you at a Squires Cafe meet last month.

 

Anyway just came on to say hello and also to say i'm on the lookout for some standard suspension (springs & dampers), but I'm tight so looking to pay as little as possible. So if anybody has upgraded their standard gear and is looking for a home for their OE stuff (assuming it isn't shagged) then i may be interested.:sly:

 

Gonna have a wonder about this place now

 

Here's a pic or 2 of my chariot, assuming they come out

 

Cheers

Welcome to the club Lee.

 

I have a brand new set of Bilstein dampers available. See details here:

 

http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=74771

 

These are OEM dampers made by Bilstein for Toyota, these were an optional performance upgrade for the Supra and were fitted as standard on some of the later models. One of the best dampers available for the Supra.

Jurassic Park!

 

I think we chatted at Squires in June, nice to see you on the forum :)

 

I've got a pair of front KYBs (normal ones) and rear Bilsteins that I took off the car recently, I also have some standard Supra springs in the garage somewhere, it's all UK stuff though so slightly softer that some of the Japanese kit. Replaced for fun rather than due to wear, they have a few miles on them though.

 

I'd like £80,000 for them, in reality I'd swap them for 4 cans of lager :)

Nic, thanks but that is way more than I wanted to spend dude

 

I have no idea what second hand gear is worth, but I'm not looking at spending much guys

 

Back of the net!

Michael, they will probably do the job nicely as the JDM stuff is a bit stiffer and others who have bolted on the supra stuff have commented the ride is a little harsher.

 

So how much do ya want dude?

You can't go wrong with Stella and Galaxy :)

 

Not jesting, just need some space in the garage, sadly the alloys can't be included, they are in getting a refurb at the moment so I'm hoping they will be looking pretty again.

 

Where abouts do you live?

Wow, what a deal!

 

No massive hurry so can arrange a convenient time to meet up, or are you going to squires in August?

 

I'm also most likely going to JAE on the Saturday, 22nd I think it is

 

cheers

really appreciate it!

I'm in south Leeds so not too far away, I can always blast up the M1 / A64 and meet you somewhere convenient.

 

Wow, what a deal!

 

You've caught me in a rare good mood ;)

I'll be at Squires but before then is fine with me, I don't have much on at the moment.

It looks as though I might not be there or Sunday only at present so we can sort something out before then if it helps you out.
