Tire Rack has them for $597.

I'm sure more people will chime in w/cheaper places, but I can't think of any more off the top of my head right now, seeing as it's just shy of 4AM.

I have seen them for around $550 shipped...can't remember the site though. Just search around on google and you will find it.

The cup kit is supposedly terrible. If I were you i'd wait and save up a little bit more for anything other than the cup kit. There has to be something else out there for around the price of that that isn't so bad...

A friend of mine was looking at one for his golf but everyone he talked to that had it on there vw hated it.

Irrelevant. We put one on my roommates GTi and it was worlds different than the one on my car.

comparing suspensions for different cars=not smart.

What I'm probably gonna get:

E30 Bilstein/H&R Sport Suspension

I've been searching through bf.c for about 3 months now, and i've read nothing but bad things about the cup kit. i've seen a couple of screen shots showing it leaning like crazy, it's basically a stock suspension but lowered and slightley stiffer for the drop. Definitly not worth the money for an E30. Go with ground control, it's adjustable and all around a great suspension.

really? that on e30's?!

how much are the GC kits then?

Have you ever been for a ride in a car with the Cup Kit or driven one? Definitely not a 'stock' suspension.

The GC setup is 3x the price of the CupKit.

No one person should be shopping between GC and the Cup Kit. It's like comparing an Elise to a Grand Am; both look fast to the average person, one actually is.

And yes, the full GC setup lists for $1449.

That's why I said earlier it'd be worth it to save up.

dont get me wrong but isnt that what all non coilover setups are?! Lowered and stiffened?
