KYB SHOX PRICE INCREASE

KYB have increased their prices. Excel G are now list at $750. The cheapest I could get them in Melbourne was $600. I have just ordered them from MX5 Mania for $450 + $20 delivery. They still have them in stock so be quick if you need them. I also need a set of stock height springs for a NA8. Does anyone know where I can get them? I haven't checked the Dealer price but assume it will be more than the $275 to $350 for aftermarket. Maybe some one has a used set they wish to sell. I don't want lower or I won't be able to get over the centre stop on my driveway gates. My last question is. Do my original springs need replacing? They have done 251,000km.

NA6 & NA8 springs are the same. Given the NA6 was much more common, maybe there's a set of relatively low km NA6 springs out there - wouldn't imagine they would cost much.

I've still got the original shocks & springs from my NA6 with ~130,000 kms on them. How much are they worth to you?

If anything ... Actually early (89-90?) NA6 springs are slightly better. Just a tad stiffer front and rear but same ride height. Shouldn't compromise SNA regs either.

As I have new ordered new KYB's I will try to get new King springs. Where can I buy them in Melbourne? Preferably near Elsternwick.
