Thought you already got your suspension fixed up.. or maybe you do. Anyway, coilovers don't last as long as regular struts and springs.. depending on the driving habits/abilities of the guy you're looking at it from, 6k might be a lot.. really depends and it's hard to ballpark

1000 new??? try 1700+.

with 6K id say a grand would be reasonable, possibly more. JIC are one of teh best colovers avalible for our cars so 6 K is not too bad. whats the spring rates?

I could have sworn that these were entry level c/o's priced in the $1000 range. Oh well. My mistake.

well they guy said it was a $2300 setup. maybr some of the stuff i listed in the original post was added?...
i just texted him and asked for the spring rates. he said hes not sure.
hes asking $1200. but i have a feeling that he would go lower... considering he wanted $200 for his DEPOS with clear blinkers...

edit: after i told him tht they are about $150 on ebay... he said o, well it was just a number i threw out. he is giving me a list of parts and prices this weekend i think. i will buy anything i want.. then let u guys kno what else is left.

ALSO... he says he has a TRD front strut tower bar... do they even make them for gen3?

No TRD front for the gen 3. It was gen 4 only... and another one for the solara. None of them clear the gen 3's hood.

That falls under the "if you have money, time, and BRACKETS LAWL, you can do anything" rule of cars.
