Lowering recommendations please ? budget 700-800US$.

This is a question for wilsonHK. I recommended H&R coilovers to him but a bit over his budget. There might be something new in the market that I am not aware of, so please give us some choices and where to buy. thanks.

Bilsten PSS's

they are a full ride height adjustable coilover. same as the PSS9's but w/o adjuatable dampening. They are running about $850 or so these days. thats about the same as you will pay for a set of eibachs and Koni's or Bilstein Sports, but with the added bonus of ride height adjuatability and they are a very nice product in terms of ride and build quality.

The adjustable 9's are running $1195, I just put some in last weekend and love them so far...scroll down the board for a link to my install pics.

not sure if anyone saw this before...

this was on the A4 forum a while ago <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/1009316.phtml">A4 Forum Discussion</a>

also see the discussion at audizine: <a href="http://www.audizine.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2027&FORUM_ID=52&CAT_ID=11&Topi c_Title=Audizine+Group+buy+Specail+H%26R+Coil+over +kits&Forum_Title=2%2E+Group+Buys+%26+Classifieds" >H&R Coilover groupbuy</a>

it looks like the person is willing to extend the offer until April. the TT application isn't listed, but the person says the offer is good on any H&R coilover kit. comparing these prices to H&R retail, the discount appears to be around 50%.
