We had another person drop out.

I'm going to give this Group Buy chance through the weekend and if we can't hit a 1-5 or 10+ price, then I'm going to have to cancel it.

The deal was made to help the forum members and unfortunately they are still not selling.

So, we have until Monday the 17th to meet one of the price levels! We can do this!

If these will adjust to the same height as the stock suspension I want in.

I believe the the least amount you can lower the height is about half an inch, so if you would be OK with this, then I can put you down.

We have 9 people as of now so hopefully we can pull it together today. This has been going since August 9, so more than two months now.

I love the ride and handling of Swift springs but the front drop of 1.6" makes my car look like it is owned by a 16 year old and is tiring to have to reattach the bumper to front fenders every time I go for a drive.. The shocks and strut dampers are worthless when the temperature is 112 degrees and are like bricks when it is under 30 degrees, plus adjustable Tokicos cost as much or more than the coil overs on this group buy.. With the ability to adjust height, preload and damping plus more range of camber adjustment all I'll need to do to really hang it out on late night runs on vacant farm to market roads will be a set of roll center adjusters and sticky tires and maybe brighter headlights.... Okay I've sold myself 100%, anybody else need to have their arm twisted?

Just wanted to correct you here - these coilovers do not come with upper mounts to adjust camber. You re-use your existing OEM top mounts. These do fit the bill for everything else you mentioned, though




Ok everybody, we have met the 10+ mark!!!

Congrats and now is the fun part - collecting the money to place our order with Buddy Club. I will PM each one of you to double check:

-Year of your Fit and model (GD or GE)
-E-mail address for Paypal payment request
-Zip code

I will update the first post with the payment information and once we collect everyone's money, then the order will be placed.

If someone flakes out, I will do the best I can and negotiate with Buddy Club to see if they will still honor the 10+ price. We will cross that bridge if we get there.

Look for a private message in your inbox everybody and please get back to me as soon as you can so we can get this process finished and get these coilovers in your hands!

Thanks!!

Spencer

Eibach has a kit for camber adjustment that is just 2 bolts and nuts with an eccentric washer as a part of the under side of the bolt head.. I already picked it up for the stock struts but they will work with these.. It is the same as what came stock on VW Rabbits 30 years ago.. I am having a problem with being the only one to have paid up considering that I was one of the last to commit to doing this... After over 60 months of owning my car, reading and researching so many components I had already been eyeing up the Buddy Club coil overs and deciding based on info from Holy Fit and Chiquita, who by the way tied the knot.. I am seeing some other things I will be getting from Bean also since I will soon back off some on engine boost mods and be improving the handling with the coil overs, braces and bars... Cosmetics comes last.... Function and speed must always come first.
