    FS Feeler: GC Coilovers with Bilsteins

    We bought this coil-over kit with the intention of running it on our LeMons car. However, after a long discussion we've decided to ditch it to avoid a thousand penalty laps.

    I want to sell it locally to avoid shipping, so it will be offered to those in the PDX/'couve area first.

    Bilstein Sports with <10,000miles.
    One front strut was repaired. The threaded portion was broken off by an idiot with an impact. The top of the strut, as well as a stainless grade 8.8 bolt were cut at a 45deg angle and welded together. I have no reason to believe this will ever break, but want to disclose it. Pictures are available in our LeMons build blog and the link is provided below.

    GC Street Camber Plates
    Nearly all of the bolts were seized when we received them. Each was removed with an EZ Out, and all harware was replaced. Anti-seize was obviously used during reassembly. They appear to be in perfect shape.

    Front Springs
    H&R 350

    Front perch sleeves have wear on the threads, but the perch will adjust all the way up and down. Also includes unleaded sleeve perches. We have them stacked on top of the ground down stock perch bc we wanted to have as much shock travel as possible.

    Rear Springs
    Eibach 450
    -no rear spring adjusters. Our car sat so high without them (FULLY STRIPPED FOR RACE), that we decided to sell them.

    Front strut housings are included to make this a "plug and play" set up.

    Retail for this set is ~$1050 - we are asking $600

            Sorry, pass. If locals aren't interested, I'm sure we'd entertain $500 + shipping w/o the strut tubes.

              Probably the old Dinan ones that came in the car with OEM shocks.

                Get the fuck out of here already, Jesus Christ.


                I have a Rear Subframe with trailing arms, hubs, half shafts, ect... Mostly just need the rear springs.

                Wish I'd kept that ETA bottom end I had kicking around. Damnit. Still have the head somewhere.
                Need a part? PM me.

                    As you can see, the weldable perches are still intact.

                      Damn I really want this and I have almost all the parts you guys need but the spring rates are a little low. Any pics of the Camber plates?

                        What sort of rates are you looking for? I was surprised at how stiff the set-up is compared to the H&R Sports.

                        I don't have any pics of the actual camber plates, but these are them:

                        When we got them, nearly every bolt (16 total) was seized. Darin and I were able to extract them all with EZOuts though. We bought brand new harware for all of them and reinstalled them with anti-seize. Theyre essentially good as new.
