- MP3 258/1500 [blue]
Alright so first off. I have an mp3. I believe ((PLEASE) (correct me if im wrong)) i have the same struts and springs as a msp so i thought it would be appropriate to post here. Im in a great debate. My struts (160k) are shot getting a pretty intense creak on, and its time for a replacement. I have NO interest in ever selling my car, its worth to me is greater than its actual monetary worth so despite the mileage i dont want a cheap short lasting option. That being said i dont have all the money to spend im hoping to stay under 600. Im wonder what my best bet is. I would like to be able to adjust ride height therefore i was thinking maybe a set of used illuminas but i just dont know what they are vs. other coilovers/ cost/ difficulty of install. Im in a debate over going new stock stuff and losing my hope for adjustability for a trustworthy option, or used coilovers basically. Im thinking like maybe 500 for a decent set of illuminas? I really want to have long lasting nice suspension, so i would like to know what lifespan of this stuff is, and if there are concerns buying used. So many options, im simply overwhelmed. Any input is greatly appreciated!(bowdown)
