Need A80 Springs
Gentlemen--
my rather heavily-modded 1990 A80 2.0 is only missing a few last things, one being the suspension. Got a full set of bilsteins for it and am in the process of modifying an extra set of front strut housings for sleeve-overs from Ground Control, but those will not be done until probably spring. And i'm not coughing up 2300 for a set of KW coilovers, either, which is what those meatheads at Tuning Zubehor want once you pay their non-refundable massive "core charge". (I think like 700 or 800 bucks or so. Ludicrous.) In the meantime, I just need a good set of lowering springs to get her rolling right. I found like 3 places in the UK that had some rather-unknown-name ones, but they said they do not ship to the US. The Eibach site does not show any (arrgh!) and the intrax site doesn't, either. I saw a guy with Vogtland springs on his, but no luck contacting him to find out where he got them. Suggestions here are most appreciated.

I got my Vogtlands at PureMS. They don't allow you to search for pre '96 anymore though..
give them a call, they might be able to order them for you. Mine had to be shipped from Germany, took a while, but I like them a lot.<ul><li><a href="http://www.purems.com/index.php">http://www.purems.com/index.php</a</li></ul>
