    Default Group Buy Of Springs

    Ok, I've started a new thread to find out what everyone wants. Orders will be limited to springs and shocks. Please fill out this form and reply here if you are interested in purchasing. I need to know what everyone wants in order to get an accurate quote.

    Springs will be King Springs, your desired height, and if you want shocks they will be shortened monroe GTs

    PLEASE DO NOT ASK QUESTIONS HERE, IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION ASK IT IN THIS LINK!!! has anyone brought springs from ebay

    First Price Indication

    Ok, from a wholesaler of King Springs, If we order 30 pairs of springs:

    Front springs: $92
    Rear Live Axle: $92
    Rear IRS: $110

    Were a fair way off 30 pairs though, I think we're on 15 at the moment. I havent asked this guy about shockies yet... I am currently deciding between 3 suppliers, the other 2 need an idea of what we want before they quote - which I haven't sent yet - these prices came back as soon as I enquired.

    Price Update

    From Reckless motorsport (sponsor), If we order at current quantities, prices are as follows:

    Springs

    King Spring Code A Non irs $100 Pair
    King Spring Code B IRS $120 Pair

    VN VP Front $140 Ultima Cartige Pair
    VR VS Front $245 KYBS Strut Pair

    VN VS Rear KYBS $125 IRS Cartiges Pair
    VN VS Rear KYBS $150 Non IRS Cartiges Pair

    Next I need to sort out freight, and I'm also still waiting for the last quote.

    you can get live axel superlows + monroe gt short shocks inc shipping cheaper off ebay than those prices.... and that's still with freight to add.

    And heres the quote from the final supplier (online performance autos):
    For an order with at least 20 sets of springs we can do them for $95 a
    pair
    (non IRS). We can also do the rear shortened shocks for $90 a pair.
    And I'm thinking he would charge the freight listed on his ebay auctions - he also offers pickup if there were Melbournian members wanting to do that. This guy is giving 10-15% discont on his ebay prices, and we currently have 24 pairs of springs (i think).

    I'm at work today, so when I get home I'll find out how much the freight is for the first supplier, and confirm it with the 3rd supplier (this one). Also, I'm getting confused with front shock absorbers - being told different things, etc.

    If he sells shortened front shocks, I'm leaning towards this final sellers quote

    Still a few things to sort out, plus i have about a thousand assignments due when i got back to uni

    I think I have been quoted from a REPCO mate $90 per set of Kings Springs and $120 for front struts and $80 for rear shocks (both Monroe GT GAS)
