how about you call whiteline direct?

then you can see if they'll do you a better deal on those part numbers than buying them seperately

Thumbs up whiteline fever !!!

well fellas after a day of rest ,
i started stratchin my head about the suspension package for my car then i remembered speakin to guy here in brisbane . who explained to me that king springs make whiteline's springs & their group4 coilovers are actually KYBcoilovers...
so i went & had a talk with him today.
he can get my 4(lowered)kings for $220 & is lookin into the coilovers now!
i think i'm startin 2 see the light @ the end of the tunnel.
n sumthin bout " ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT... "
i'll just keep my fingerz crossed

troubl... if you after a complete suspension package talk to Bruce at Leda Suspension Brendale... of all the Targa Tasmania cars that come from QLD, all but two are set up by him...

Leda Suspension... look it up...

oh, and ALL of Whiteline's springs come from Dobinson Springs, deal with them direct and save heaps... ALL of their poly bushes come from noltech... however they do do their own sway bars and struct braces...

be helpful for once, and if these guys arn't the "experts", tell people who is, so then they can actually benefit from your knowledge?

lol... i know... seriously.. i so wanna paint the civic anti rice and spend a coupla nights at aspley macca's...!!! My first idea is to put 'Milk, Bread, Eggs, Chicken, RICE' down my front doors.... and across the back "Little White Rice Cooker"....

I hate seeing excels/new civics/mummy's barina (no offence nate) done up as fully sik drift machines... on the dirt... yes, a FWD IS the most controllable sideways... but if any street racer has that amount of skill, i'll paint the rally car pink and wack a big fat drift king sticker across the bonnet... just think how much more power it would have then... OMG!
