  • Performance/lowering springs.... with a catch

    I found another source for performance/lowering springs for our beloved little beasts. The catch is though that they only deliver to the UK...



    If you know anyone in the UK that could help you out then who knows.....

    With delivery thats $190 US. Then you'd have to get them sent over here. Its still cheaper to buy from FMS, he has free delivery on springs.

        Same price? Look again. Worth more than most Festiva's, 727 GBP = 1400.00 USD.

            Its still cheaper to go through FMS for the suspension parts.( springs and Teins coil overs).

              I am going to take a trip to Japan, Tein SS coils are NOT worth $1000 USD. Non adjustable struts? My buddy in his Miata got the Flex's for $1200 shipped FROM Japan to his door... I like FMS in that we (the Festiva community) have a store to buy performance parts/hard to find parts from, BUT hate the fact that they can charge outrageous prices for FESTIVA parts! -Kyle

                Their part prices aren't outrageous.. Try Ford.. Try ATH Hinsberg.. Try Tien.. oh Wait they don't make those anymore, only the wagon version.. So far I have yet to see anyone come up with a single steady source for parts (aftermarket or oem) for Festivas that are cheaper than FMS. Not 1.. FMS includes shipping, duties etc. Oh, and don't forget to add the cost of that trip to Japan into your part cost
