^^^ Yes thats what I paid but we all know they are worth more than that. I actually bought these for my own car not just to sell on mate, which I am assuming you are implying by linking the original auction link, you can ask anyone that knows me I was running these in my car for weeks in between my Bilsteins and the coilovers I am now running. Not that I have to justify myself, as I know I am a trusted seller on here when I sell due to upgrading, but below I have detailed the purchase of these as I have nothing to hide.

I actually had to travel a 50kms round trip to pick them up after countless phone calls to the seller at my expense (seller was very difficult to get a hold of and actually arrange a time and place to meet wasting lots of my time). Upon buying them I fully disembled both shocks/springs professionally to test the insert and thoroughly clean them. I then fitted these to my R33 (Not the easiest of jobs requiring rear seat removal etc) and drove on them for a couple of weeks. If i merely bought them and sold them for more and there was actually something wrong with them then I could see your point in posting where I originally bought them but I actually bought these for myself and am now selling due to upgrading.

Now as to why I am asking more than I paid. The adjustable shocks alone retail for ~$280 a piece at Car Torque which is just the shocks no springs, top plates etc etc. I also spent a lot of time and effort in getting them and testing them so as a result I am selling them for less than what they are really worth and not the price I paid.

If you are not a serious buyer please do not post in any of my future posts I have nothing to hide and will only sell a item that is A1!

All serious buyers are welcome to make a offer but am reasonably firm. Shocks are in mint condition will pull apart and demonstrate to buyer if required.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
