1400 for pss9's is not a steal fyi guys! to me there worth 1k
pss10's are better and can be had for $2700 brand new, with the pss9's your looking at the previous generation and a much older system at that.
Patrick - good on you selling them though! but like my previous message stated this whole dibs this is straight up annoying! im the kind of guy who has cash and will pull the trigger if i want something! some people cant appreciate that and will wait and wait for just a couple extra dollars! i mean why ship if you can sell locally, my time is too precious to stand at usps with a big *** box!
as stated previously this is by no means an attack on any forum members, there a set of coilovers no big deal! im just expressing what a lot of members think of the dibs system! for example if we had the dibs system in the stock market we would all be on 6speed looking for bargains! hehe
a commitment must be made!
night guys!

I thought (and so did many others) the price of $1,400 was a great deal for a perfectly good set of Bilstein Coilovers nothing wrong with the shocks or anything. Just decided to try something new. I can say confidently, if one was to drive a car with PSS9 vs PSS10 at the similar setting, they won't be able to tell any difference. Additionally, I had my car corner balanced with the PSS9. So if the new owner is happy with the height, they're getting a free corner balance
.I actually don't mind shipping, all I really have to do is find a box, throw in a whole lot of bubble wrap, and tape it up. I have an account with FedEx and they do daily pickup at where I work. So I don't mind at all. In the end, it's just a little more work for me.

ME got lucky..
!! What is the drop on these babies? If they are within Bilstein spec - 5mm back and 10mm front, I am one happy customer. I just want to reduce the 4X4 look of the car on 19' rims and not looking for hellaflush.I think $1,400 is a fair deal and 1K would be a steal in my book.

Just installed a used set of PSS9s, drop links, spacers, alignment, and corner balance. Dropped front by 1.5" and back by 1"... Looks much more aggressive and turn in at the track is much improved. Key is a good setup from competent installer.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

That is my biggest worry now - finding a competent installer. I heard stories from incompetent ones and it ends up causing more damage to the suspension than improving it.
