I refuse to answer on the grounds I would have to say no, but I posted first about it!

Yes, I know, and I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night! I hope to have the chance to check out and buy the car.

Very true Will, very true!! I saw that and laughed thinking the exact same thing. :)

For those who wanted the Tokico set up and missed out they are selling 7 more of them...they were just listed! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7959535198&category=33590

You plicks!!! I have been wanting that set for ages. I emailed them 4 weeks ago asking about shipping to Australia and they haven't answered then tonight i was looking for them again and couldn't find them with the springs so i emailed about just the shockers. Yes the price is really good and I was gonna get them for my Z as soon as I have the money :).

Anyone know what the springs are rated at in terms of poundage??

At least they will have some more soon.

I have seen that spring/ shock combo being sold by that person for about a year on ebay. Beleive me he will have more in just a few days. I'd planned on picking some up myself when my tax rebate shows up.

I bought a set of these about four months ago, and paid $519. Shipping was free, but y'all look to have gotten a deal with total cost of $484.

The front springs are progressive, and a thread started here a couple months back about how the springs looked funny mounted on the car, but sorta died. Maybe with the recent purchasers, some new insight can be shared?

For my 1972 240z, the upper four spring coils are fully compressed when installed on the car. The next 4-5 turns are not fully loaded. I thought this was odd, but I have seen now three other 240s with Tokico springs and they all look similar, so I suppose it doesn't translate into undo stress on the shocks. Since they are sold as a matched set (springs and strut cartridges) from Tokico, I am hoping this is how they are intended to perform.

Hope everyone enjoys their purchase!

Good luck,

Steve
