where to buy GC coilovvers (sleves)

hi guys,

everywhere seems to need 2 weeks to get them to me, I am in FLA... does anyone know where I can get a set sooner? I just have to pay for something that I wont see for 2-3 weeks..

Thanks !

(as a result I was looking into skunk2.. )

I have Konis in the rear...

thanks

Stuff takes time to ship this time of year. 2 weeks isn't that bad.

ok, I just ordered from ground control...

339.00 plus shipping? is that bad? skunks are cheaper.. but I guess you get what you pay for?

Thanks !

jttegx has a spectacular aura aboutjttegx has a spectacular aura about
www.importhorizon.com

i wouldnt get skunk2 sleeved coilovers on my civic if i were you...

1) rumors has it they arent compatible with aftermarket shocks
2) ugly metal rubbing sound on fronts (solution = grease though)
3) pretty rough ride when on rough rodes but im pretty sure all coilovers are like that.

point: go with ground controls.. just keep in mind their are 2 kinds of sets i beleive. 1 is meant to be used with stock shocks while the 2nd is meant to go with a koni yellow combo.

The difference in konis only happens in the rear of the cars, so... I think it would be best to get the konis (the rears) first and then then GC.

WOW! You got the ground controls for $239 plus shipping? I feel jipped...

I bought mine brand new for $300 plus shipping, so it came out to around $320 shipped
