Doing some future planning for replacing the shocks. Seemingly can get a full set of KYB AGX adjustable shocks and the Tein camber adjustable front top mounts for about $980 on current exchange rate from Camskill. Cheapest that the BC BR coilovers I can find around is $1300 (and not sure if that would include delivery either).

Another shock v. coilover debate go \o/

Haha. Well, how do I tell the condition of the shocks? Aside from uneven height. If I can just do the strut tops for a bit that's an option I suppose.

Yeah, no worries. Will probably take that much time for me to decide what I'm doing and get the girlfriend to approve of it as a necessary expense. :lol:

Ok, I will give them to you in exchange for your first born child.

Lol, I think you took Phil's EFA as my actual statement. :lol: I actually have a great girlfriend who is not like some typified money sponge, which is awesome. 8) Probably will wait until I've got a bit more in the bank though (and it's a Tim-friendly time to work hah). I reckon by that time the shocks'll be pretty due and I will have garnered up enough cash past Christmas time. We'll see! Maybe I'll just go crazy and buy ZFL4SH's instead. :hmm:

Yeah, I think I lost the ability to read after my venture to a Newcastle nightclub lowered my IQ significantly, followed by bendering onto Bennoz' housewarming.. so many brain cells not accounted for :lol:

Well f**k, does she have a sister? :lol:

Two, actually. The older is already seeing someone. Attempting to woo the younger might end up unfortunately for you. :lol:
