Check out shox.com for excellent Koni pricing. Don't know if they have Ground Controls or not. GForceAuto also had a wicked Koni groupbuy, maybe he's got some hookups, too.

Thanks for the info Derk2000. My price on koni sports are only $300.oo for the rear shipped. I dont think anyone can touch that price. With a stiffer shock, since they are ajustable, it would cut down on suspention movement if I put it on the stiffest set-up. I dont care about comfort, its a want-a-be race car. lol  I thought you only changed the springs if you wanted to lower the car. Still looking for a good price on Ground Controls. SHOX wants $419 without struts ! Dang -B.

Alright, Randy's got the springs/struts. Since no one local is interested in the other stuff, I'm going to see if I can sell it in the classifieds.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot something. I also have a set of never-been-used sway bar bushings for both the front and rear sway bars. They are from BAT and fit the stock sway bars. Anyone want 'em?

If no one needs them, I will clear you out my friend ! lol I love having extra everything while I own the car. My car makes noises in the rear, but I think it is the back glass, I dont think the installer did a good job and it rubs on the window frame. I think thats the noise I hear, might be the bushings. I have spent hours trying to find it. Letting the wife drive and me sitting in the back going crazy trying to find the sounds as we go over bumps. lol -B.
PS: Keep finding stuff !

Sounds like classic rear sway bar creaking...  Ben, do you have a S4 picked out yet?

Rady, it definitely sounds like the ever-popular rear sway bar. I will listen when you come up here next week. Mine used to do the same thing.
If anyone wants the bushings, let me know. If someone other than Randy wants them, I will "share the wealth". Otherwise, he is taking the springs, struts, and bushings next Tuesday.
Derek, I found the S4 that I wanted but we were about $900 apart on price. It was at a dealer and they were really trying to screw me. Basically, I am looking for an 01 or 02 with around 40k miles. Would prefer silver, blue, or black; not really into the flashier colors like yellow or red.

My brother works at Glauser Mercedes. I know they've got a yellow (flashy, I know, but c'mon it's an S4!) one in stock, asking ~26K. I don't know the rest of the specs on it, but maybe give them a call. The S4 is without a doubt my replacement for the CSVT when funds are available. Absolutely LOVE that car. Then again, a Volvo S60R wouldn't be too bad of a choice either...
