Need a group fmv rating. 

New kit is $48

This kit has used sleeves, and two different used spring of different height and rate. And aluminum tophats for the springs. 

What says the hive?

What happens if you take your closest you pull it yard, price a generic bracket , a coil spring, then price each spring/sleeve accordingly. Divide in half to eliminate JY overhead/proffit and align better w/ used market. What's that?

 

Edit: nevermind. JY prices are up. And stupid.

Real springs or garbage, no rate, mystery springs?

Garbage no rate mystery springs. According to the math, red are 550, blue are 250. The blue are actually sagged out from last year's challenge car.  Almost in coil bind.

I think the set I got from echo echo echo at a past challenge was about the same price. I'll go $15.

Springs included in the original kit price @ $48?

I generally offer 30-50% of new price for used aftermarket stuff depending on condition. Sagged coils put you at the lower end of that, so $15 seems reasonable to me

Yup. Civic coilover sleeve are CHEAP on Amazon and Ebay. 

I can't even use the sleeve on the front. Found that out after starting the thread.

There's a new kit on ebay for $39.99 shipped so $15 is fair
