One of the few sets left in the US. They only had 25,000 miles on them.

Do the Math...$200, they are a perfect fit for my car, and no need to buy different endlinks. FYI they are not the same as Illumina's...they are a Combo of KYB's and Tokico's, and from what Edwin Man tells me they are stiffer than Illumina's, and normally only available throught Mazdaspeed Motorsports now...Look on Corksport, they are $233 a strut !!! I got them for $200 and they have already been modified to fit a bigger swaybar !!! They only had 25,000 miles on them too !

Good buy MacD, my racing co-hort was the seller, and his car was/is one the best set-up P5's in the US of A. And besides, the MSP Green Meanies have the rear adjuster where GOD HIMSELF intended it to be, so you don't have to dismantle the luggage compartment every time you want to go up or down a click. Tokico, are you listening? Hello? McFly?

macD, when you buy an AWR swaybar, I have some stainless steel screws I have been selling to replace the ones that come with the swaybar, as they will rust. Only $5 for a set of 8 shipped. Several people have bought them to replace their rusted ones. Hopefully it can help you. I found a local retailer with these in stock.
