I just wanna throw this out there to see what it's worth/ checking if anyone with a full coil-over suspension would be down for a trade + cash depending on what you have.


99 NB Sport Shocks Not blown or leaking
FCM Bump stops 36/47 or whatever they are
Ebay Coil over sleeves and unknown spring rates.
NB front top hats
ISC Racing 1.5" rear top hats


Compared to Tokico Blues:

I've since removed the helper springs, as it didn't allow me to be at the ride height I wanted.

I'm pretty happy with these, But I'm always looking for some sort of deal.
They handle pretty nicely, corners pretty flat and it's not harsh except when driving slowly over bumpy pavement due to the low speed valving. Going from the Tokico blues to these really made a huge improvement to the way my car handles. These shock bodies are pretty long so my ride height is about as low as they go without removing a collar.


It's my daily driver, so If I'm going ahead with a trade I'd need the new stuff shipped to me first. I understand people don't wanna get scammed so I'd be able to give a paypal deposit.

Ideally I'd be getting Fortune autos/Tein superstreet/flex/ bc/stance/megans

No raceland/vmaxx/ or any of that.. :icon_cheers:

Close this please.

Gonna recycle my hardware and re-use it on a future (maybe hopefully) re-valved set up.

I'll post these dampers up later on for a crack head cheap price lol.
