Default RKA has a set of STaSIS Tracksports (sport valving, fronts) 500 front / 600 rear. ~$1000

Or, if you want something new with a warranty, IIRC, TireRack.com recently had their A4 H&R coilovers reduced down to around $1100 shipped. The rates are 395/395 and I would recommend going to the S4 version for 450/450 rates, if you want a slightly bit more sporty feel, but either are perfect for the A4 as well as the Tracksports.

And, rumor has it that StartUpRacing.com is going to do a group buy with their Vogtland GT series coilovers. pricing for those would probably be in the same price range.

I would rank them:

STaSIS Tracksports
Vogtland GT (a very close 2nd, but would be 1st over the price of new Tracksports)
S4 H&R
A4 H&R

Default It's probably spoken for...the ad is still up on AZ...

I have an interested buyer, but haven't accepted money from him until I get my rear shocks back from Stasis. They made a 3 ring circus out of something that should have been so simple (and it cost me 2x's their initial estimate (and a 2-3 week delay) because of staff turnover and a mistake they made when quoting me to replace to rusted lower spring perches). I'm not happy about it, but nobody says I have to hand them my money in the future.

S-road, if you're interested and would like to see pictures when I get the rear shocks back from stasis, email me at raj_ashar1127 -at- yahoo -dot- com.

Default Yeah, I'm waiting to see the price on the GTs from that GB.

Those are my first choice if they drop enough. They're still not in stock, though...I think.
