Yup. Definitely find out what kind of showa coils he was talking about. He could be talking about ignition coils or coil springs

Well, kinda hope u didn't get them yet. Coz I'd like to see what kinda showa product the guy is selling.

edit: Didn't realize u're from Beijing. Does the seller work at a shop? Is he from Hong Kong/Guangzhou?

Well I guess find out if that's the SPOON(showa)coilovers. Sounds too good to be true anyway. And I wonder how long he's been using those suspension for?
