FS: NEW konis, h-sports & Helix camber plates

Once again I got impatient and pulled the trigger too soon. I bought Koni yellow dampers, H-Sport springs and Helix camber plates (formerly RDR camber plates)......then I decided to go with Megan/Pilo coilovers instead. So, the dampers, springs and camber plates must go.

They're completely unused and comw with all the original parts and documentation - the Konis and H-Sports are even still in their original boxes!

The best current prices I can find (from reputable vendors) are $600 for the Konis, $225 for the H-Sports, and $500 for the camber plates (current "special" at Helix), so.......

Koni Sport dampers ("yellows") - SOLD to OasisT

H-Sport springs - $170.

Helix camber plates - SOLD to IsItElectric?

If you buy the lot (or at least both the dampers and camber plates) I'll throw in the special tool RDR used to sell that makes it easy to adjust the front Konis through the plates.

thanks - steve

I'm envious about the Megan coilovers. Hope those work out great for you!

The folks at H-Sport say they have not yet tested their springs on a Cabrio and therefore will not commit to say they will work. You might be able to get a more definitive answer from one of our tuners who sell H-Sport springs.

And I would much rather have sold the lot as a set! Why couldn't you have waited 2 weeks?

OasisT - the Konis have shipped.

IsItElectric? - just need to know how you want to handle delivery.

H-Sports - one offer so far but it was withdrawn - still available - if you've asked about the springs and I missed you, please pm me again.

thanks - steve

I had two responses from H-Sport that went something like "I don't know, we've never tried it" and "good question, we need to get a cabrio in here and try it, but I don't expect problems." In other words, I don't know. You might also try the couple of lowered MINIs threads here on NAM to see if there are any H-Sport-ed cabrios.

Yes, they're still available, but there's now someone in line right behind you. I say first-come-first-served, but now I need a decision. Sorry to pressure you, but....
Also, here's that pic you asked for. I think H-Sport may have changed their blue color to something more subdued. If so, this is the original "H-Sport blue."
