depends on the sways and springs.

That's like "I found this car on a used lot for $1500. Is that a good deal?"

Details, what king of sways - thickness, brand.. Same with the springs.. brand, etc?

For a comparo, iON springs were about $400 CDN, and I hear they are GREAT springs. So for another $50 for a sway... depends.

I thought you were talking about springs and swaybars. That auction is for strut bars. Although they are not going to give you the benefits of a swaybar, it might help a little. I personally am not a big fan of strut bars. I don't think they do much

I think the auction was for these all together. Progress springs, front and rear swaybars. It is not up now but I saw it last night on Ebay.

That is a pretty good price. I bought my whiteline bars for $140 each. Jump on it and see if they will do a group shippment to save a little bit.

You don't want UPS ship those stuff to Canada
They will rape you on brokeage

I wonder why it takes so long for H&R and Eibach to come out with something
the OE sports from H&R is very good, lower your car for about 0.75~1"

I would prolly wait for something like that to come out, and match it with Koni Yellow, the Perch on those shocks can lower it for another .75"

i know shipping its gonna be crazy, but i can't really lower the car too much. The wifey is not liking it. cuz my old car was too low.

The spring itself should lower your car 0.75 to 1"

The Koni Yellow has adjustable perch

I like that kinda setup b'coz if I felt that's too low, I can increase the height, if it is too high, I can lower it for a bit more and still have the same level of ride quality.
Hopefully they will come up with something soon. IMO, H&R spring w/ koni shock are perfect match.
