KYB Suppliers?

Postby Basstones » Fri Nov 28, 2008 7:03 pm

Hi all,

About to do upgrade the suspension on my NA6. Looking to go the standard KYB AGX/King combination, but am a bit unsure as to where the best prices are these days. Ebay is looking like its around $530, plus delivery (waiting reply on what that will be). With the current exchange rate are there better places to be looking?

Have searched and noticed there may have been some deals recently, but im stumped if i can find them now :P

Also, slightly confused about the bumpstops. If you replace them with FCM parts, do they still need to be modified to fit?

Thanks all!

According to the FCM website only Bilsteins and Koni shocks need some mods for bumpstops, so go for it you won't be disappointed!!

Thanks for that, flicked them an email this morning and got a pretty fast reply.

They can offer me them delivery to brisbane for $680 + $25 freight, and king lows at $160 + $25 freight.

Postage on ebay items was $115 for standard, $130 for priority, US dollars.

So looks like it's going to be around the same either way, may as well try and stay local :) Will be ordering these on wednesday so if anyone else has any better suggestions/recommendations would still be very interested...

EDIT: Oh there was one thing other thing I wanted to check, this is part of the email...

Hi Tony. The AGX listing is for MX5 NA3, 1.6/1.8 convertible including ABS (10/89 – 12/97). Doesn’t say anything about NA6.



Part numbers for the NA3 are:

Front: 741015

Rear: 741016

...snip...


Are those the correct part numbers? When I go through the KYB website it seems to say that it should be... :?
Front Rear
Left & Right 341143 341127

EDIT 2: Nvm, turns out I was using "Find Shock Absorbers" not "Find Performance Shock Absorbers". Part numbers are correct.
