FS: Stock Struts + Tein Springs + Tein Camber Plates

Im selling the suspension I recently pulled off my car. I decided to change all bushings, ball joints, and get new coilovers for my vehicle due to the power i will be putting down. I didnt feel the current suspension was safe or willingly able to handle 600whp+ safely, so im selling my old suspension.

You can literally pull your current off and bolt these up yourself. If you own a 1/2 drive tool set you can do this within 10-20minutes. Its literally only 3-4 bolts on top for camber plate and 2 below to hold the struts in place on your car.

The suspension was fine, I just wanted something better. The struts have 40k miles on them, they still felt stiff, the evo was stiff / very responsive with this setup, its just i wanted something new and didnt feel the current was good enough for my goals power wise.

I am letting it go for $450 shipped. The plates alone cost this.

Check my profile pictures to see how the car sits with this suspension

I dont have a spring compressor and if thats whats required to part out the suspension im not doing it..

If I can remove without a compressor id have no problem parting it out..... but i dont think i can. The springs look compressed.

u dont need a spring compressor with lowering springs. u jus stand on the spring and back the strut up against a wall so it doesnt shoot out trust me i did it with stock springs and thats alot more tension

as u loosen it it will start to loose its tension as long as u have downward force on the spring it will try to shoot the strut back but as long as theres something backin it youll be fine the plate might move like 5 inches forward. dont wanna kill you tho so if u feel unconfortable doin it when ur gettin to the final threads dont do it. no point in doing something ur not fully confortable in doing.
