Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

27 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hey found this while browsing craigslist. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/pts/337650944.html It could be worth checking out and would be a good deal if it is legitimate. (I'm not affiliated with the lister)

POST 2Original post

Nice price. Someone jump on this! Bay Area peeps??

POST 3Original post

Called him and arranged pick up for tomorrow! Thanks for looking out on this... David

POST 4Original post

****...It pays to be local... I arranged for him to ship them to me around 6ish...I was waiting for him to send me pictures of the box so that I could confirm part# O well, great find...I hope your communication goes smooth

POST 5Original post

Damn...that was SUPER deal....I paid $1500 for a used set. Make sure it's not a sting operation

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Whoever ends up with them. Please post pics after they're installed

POST 7Original post

That's interesting... he's meeting me this afternoon at Hayward to sell it to me... LOL The guy could barely speak english.

POST 8Original post

OK, whoever ended up with these... I want to hear the story. Who is this mysterious foriegn man in Oakland selling discount Bilsteins? LOL

POST 9Original post

True that! I wonder how much he bought it for... I talked the guy down to $700 before I guess Reborn drove to East Oakland with cash at 7am. Reborn wanted it more than I did- I don't think I would have driven there even if it's free. E Oaktown scares me.

POST 10Original post

Well, it was a bit scary for the neighborhood but I needed them ASAP. I actually bought a set of used H&R coilovers and had an appointment to install them tomorrow. When I saw these posted I called immediately since the PSS9's are what I originally wanted. Now I just have to sell the H&R's I have and call it a day. Should have some pics this weekend. Dimnslow... did you really have to tell me you bargained him down to $700!!! Well, it was still a good deal for me. David

POST 11Original post

you may want to use gloves to handle them. They may be a little "warm"

POST 12Original post

Yeah, thought about that but not sure how to verify. He works at Dublin VW and was willing to meet me there..plus I have his home address and phone number so if they were "warm" it would be easy for him to get caught. The transaction went well and I made it out alive from Oaktown (although next time I will take my truck!). David

POST 13Original post

I know he worked for VW, but did he have a Porsche? Kind of odd.

POST 14Original post

He said he bought them from somebody for his honda civic. He tried to install them but the application was obviously wrong. He ran the part # and it was for a Porsche... Good find. Like I said, I closed the deal with him pending a picture of the part# since I thought that he might not even know and then he sold them on me... It was hard for me to trust him anyways not being able to speak english. But he finally emailed me back and said they were sold... O well...Too good to be true

POST 15Original post

Hot property......also good way to get jacked or relieved of your wallet or worse..... meeting folks in unfamiliar places to do parking lot deals.

POST 16Original post

Well, the meeting spot was my choice since I had to do it on the way in to work and did not want to wait for him to get to VW. As for hot, that is speculation with no way to verify that I know of... He did show me the Honda he bought them for - no Porsche. The box was pretty beat up but the shocks looked good... besides, I have been known to go to outragous lengths to get things... like Crenshaw Blvd in LA to pick up the Porsche itself!!! After that fun filled event a little drive to Oakland was nothing... LOL ... All's well that ends well. David

POST 17Original post

OT: E Oaktown ain't THAT bad. I used to drive around in my M3 and E55 in/around Watts/South Central LA w/o any issues. Congrats on the deal!

POST 18 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Reborn996, glad it all worked out for you

POST 19Original post

are these on e-bay right now? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tchlink:top:us

POST 21Original post

Reborn996...so I didn't get a chance to see the listing, too new to this forum, but were these new in the box and what did you pay for the kit?

POST 22Original post

Yep, they were new in the box. I paid the asking price of $1000 but someone here was kind enough to tell me the bargained them down over the phone a couple of hundred bucks so I guess I overpaid! The H&R coilovers listed above are actually mine. They are what was replaced by the PSS9 kit. I daily drive my Porsche and wanted the option to go really soft on the settings which the PSS9's allow. David

POST 23Original post

Wow great price...I will have to keep my eyes and ears open for another set at that price. PSS9's is what I will be installing next year (this years funds gone to the new wheels and tyres).

POST 24Original post

I know it's an auction and all, but what's the buy it now price on your coil overs? Also....for the noobs (like me) what are the pros and cons of PSS9 versus the coilovers you are selling. I understand the PSS9 are adjustable, and presumably the H&R are not, but I don't think I'd be adjusting them much anyway. Are the H&R towards the soft. middle, or hard end of the PSS9 range? thx

POST 25Original post

Speed Demon: I seriously doubt you're going to see another set of new PSS9's for $1K anytime soon. That was the deal of the century. I paid $1400 plus shipping for a used set from a Rennlister and thought that was an outstanding deal.

POST 26Original post

Chuck I know, but you never know when another set falls off the back of a truck again

POST 27Original post

Well, the main reason for me to switch was the damping adjustment for the ride quality that the PSS9's offer. The H&R are adjustable for height but not damping. Since my car is mostly a daily driver with some nasty commute roads I wanted to make it extra soft. The H&R's are still a good ride but on rough roads you can feel it (probably equal to middle range on PSS9's). I think the H&R's can even go lower in height than the PSS9's but I did not want to ride that low. As for the auction, I have it set with a $800 reserve so I think someone will still get a good deal out of it. David
