Not sure really probably somewhere around£1250
They cost £1588 new and £288 import tax so i suppose thats reasonable
Thanks

I am selling them as they are a second set (first set oil seals went when mapping). I couldnt wait for them to be sent back to Japan and inspected then a new set sent so i had a hks t51 kai put on instead. hopefully these will help pay for that. Any specs on your hypermax
Thanks

HKS Hyper max II, it was on my car when I bought it (1st UK owner) and only done 3k miles since in UK, its all in good condition and no leak...

Fully height adjustable and 16(or 32) level adjustment.... I think the spring rates is about 8k.:Thumbs-up
