Wow thats what they look like in good condition.
 
I have these fitted to my rx (came with the car) They`ve been discontinued now but were around the £1350 mark new so I would buy them, parts may be hard to get though

As above,  they cant be repaired but cheap if they are ok.   These are the very firm even on the softest setting.

I have a set of these you can have. I replaced them for the Tein Mono Flex and they are just sat in my garage.
 
Let me know if you are interested.

if jukesr doesnt take them, give me a shout m8, I have HA\'s and would look at keeping a spare set for backup as they are no longer made. Let me know if you dont sell.

Cheers m8

There is a question mark over one of mine, the front passenger side (nearside). Without the spring fitted, if you push the damper in it doesn\'t slowly slide back out like the other three do. I contacted Tein about having it, and the rest of them, rebuilt, and the guy laughed and said they were really old. I pressed him and he said they could rebuild them but it would be about £150-£200 per damper. I track and sprint mine a lot so i just thought \'sod it\' and bought a complete new set. £1000-odd fitted.
 
The other three are fine. Bit rusty (surface) and a lot of paint missing (after i sodding jetwashed it off.....got a bit close with the lance) but overall OK condition.
 
I guess if you got the whole set, or had some already, it might be worth getting that one rebuilt. Or if you only need the other three you are laughing. It drives OK on them, and the spring pushes it out, so unless you are in a hurry you may not even notice, driving normally.
 
As said, they are just sitting about...

hi papercup,

please let me know what happens as jukesr was first informed. I have a slight squeak coming from one of the rears, so these would be a great stock up for me.

Cheers.
