    The tunershop look similar to Weitec coilovers with the green springs.

    Add 15% import duty and 10% GST on cost of item and shipping and 'no name' coilovers are going to cost $1650

    Remember that US-made products don't incur any import taxes anymore after the Free Trade Agreement. I got my exhaust and headers here for nothing more than the purchase and postage price

    I've not seen any good US-made coilovers, though!!! My KWs cost about $2600 all up, but the ride quality is ridiculously good and they're worth every cent. H&R are very good too, but about the same price Not tried FKs, but apparently the Konigsport ones drive really well. You can get them in Aus from www.europeanautotech.com.au... at least, you used to be able to; they're not on the site anymore...

    No disrespect to Brian is it? but their prices are through the roof, like trying to get a front mount intercooler for an A3 1.8T.....forget about it!

    They aren't coilovers, they're lowering springs...
