Group buy: King Spring F&R for Micra K11

[CMF_flameboy]

hi guys...

i am just wondering, if anyone interested in group buy for brand new set of king spring (lowered) for micra K11. i can get it cheaper that rrp if i can arrange a group buy.

as you all know, king spring is not the best spring, its not hard enough, it get softer after it gets older... but its quite cheap. i guess u got what you paid for... i just wanna lowered the micra abit so it dont look like a 4WD...

group buy price $220 (for both front and back)

brand new rrp is around $300

maximum 10ppl... i can't get anymore as they don't have many stock for micra left...

my phone number is 0413397102. you can email me at [email protected] to arrange payment. then i will add you to the list...

i am in melbourne but can probably ship interstate, i dunno how much it cost to ship. anyone have an idea? i will ask around.

regards,
Silas

I would be interested. Need to check prices but $220 sounds not too bad for a full set. Run Kings on my green car and had no complaints.

yeah... let me know... if you can get cheaper please let me know, i will get it from your source... i'm in no rush atm, i just need to get 3-4 ppl in the group buy to get that price...

if we can get 10 ppl, the guy said he could give abit more discount...

anything going on with this? you have to run a adjustable panhard rod on it when you lower it right?

postage to sydney?

 

[CMF_flameboy]

for all victoria member from melbourne metro and suburbs, pick up from knox city area...

for interstate members, postage around $10-$20, you can double check from australia post website... shouldnt cost that much.

No, I never needed to adjust anything when I lowered my car. No abnormal wear on the tyres and handling improved a little. I should add that I had the springs profesionly fitted, so maybe adjustment was made. however nothing was said and I did not have an adjustable panhard rod back then.

smidge... its highly reccomended you use a shorter/adjustable panhard as it lines the axel up properly. if you have wheels with a big offset (i think more than +35 or something) youl hit the guards on the drivers side under compression. i have a whiteline adjustable panhard in mine which ive just put lowering springs in n it works a treat. not to mention how much stiffer it makes the back of the car cos its fairly heafty haha. there like 100-150 from whiteline i think... not too bad seeing as itl ensure your not driving around with an off centre rear axle!!!

i found this too

[smidge]

with heaps of weight in the back i hit the drivers side rear guard already, so i might need to get them rolled if i go lower

 

[CMF_tris]

yeh rolled is an option...youd probably only get about a cm out of it tho... but a panhard will fix the problem too and also stiffen then rear end.. is yours a super s?? i know that the super s ones are a bit thicker and stronger than slx ones... mine was pitiful... almost just a piece of sheet metal bent into a dome shape so it was hollow. the new ones solid steel i think.

anyway its upto you
