Default Ground Control Coilovers...

I have up for sale a pair of Ground Control Coilovers that came off of a 1995 Honda Civic EX Coupe. They were already on the car when I purchased it but I recently installed full coilovers. I had Ground Control send me a new o-ring kit which included many different size o-rings as well as new hex screws and chuck. Chances are you will have to order new spring rubber mounts due to the half ass job of the last person that installed these so they could use replacing. Other than that the coilovers are in really good shape other than the normal wear and tare. Asking price is $150 o.b.o.. If you live in the Fredericksburg area, I'd be happy to meet up with you guys so you can see them for yourself. Anyways, here are some pics.

they go between the coil over and the strut to keep it from rattling and moving.

Not quite sure how to tell what the spring rates are, like I said, they were already installed when I purchased the car. On the REAR springs the number 0700.250.0650 is printed on it and on the FRONT spring the number is ____.250.0750 with the first 4 numbers worn off so I can't see it. The front springs measure 6" in height and the rear springs are 7" in height. I'm all new to the whole car scene guys so bare with me.

Here is what the numbers mean:

0600.250.0750 - 6" tall, 2.5" dia, 750 lbs
0700.250.0650 - 7" tall, 2.5" dia, 650 lbs

These spring rates are ideal for track, going to be quite harsh on the street, and these work best with "race valved" shocks.

i recommend selling these in honda-tech's race parts section. GLWTS!
