hey dude,

my king springs where $130 a pair, fronts kyb struts where $140ish each and the rear kyb's where $100 for the pair.

i would come to help, but the weekend of the 27th is my bday, so i'll probably be either drunk or hungover most of that weekend!

I *used* to be able to get Kings for around the $80 mark I think. I'll see if I can get them anywhere near that price still.

3 inch lift with 14 inch rims are generally the basic cocktail going about Perth at the moment.

ohh ok... that explains it. For the record i belive the best car/driver combination out of the people that come on our trips has a 2 inch lift kit... road tyres and a standard motor.
