Tokico struts - $330 from Power Garage.

[bradman]

Has anyone done business with Power Garage, Inc.? Set of Tokico struts for the SHO = $330. Set of Eibachs = $220. This sounds too good to be true.

As I was saying I got a price as well. 330 shipped sounds too good to be true. I asked for a phone number and they replied "we prefer emails" and that's it. I asked again, and still I received the same message. Maybe you could email them back to see if they have a webpage. I am sick of asking questions. They do have a ton of shit on ebay though. I guess you could always put it on your credit card, and if it turns out to be bogus, just let the credit card company fight it out with them.

EDIT: I just checked Power Garages feedback on ebay, and it looks wonderful. I guess they are a legit company. Maybe the people who run it just lack English skills. Shoot though, 330 for tokicos and 225 for eibachs and you're gonna have one phat ass suspension setup for literally the price of just the struts at any other place. boink

The replies I got from the Power Garage people indicate that English is probably not their first language, so maybe they don't like to communicate over the phone.

Their items thru ebay are covered by the "Squaretrade" buyer proctection plan, so I asked if they would do the deal thru ebay if I paid the listing fees and final value fees. They agreed. I'm still a little nervous, but I feel I've protected myself the best that I can. $570 shipped for Tokicos and Eibachs,... still a **** of a deal. Best way to contact them is to send a message through ebay. I told them they could probably expect some more emails from SHO owners. I'll post here after I receive the shipment.

So is there an add on ebay for these items now? I looked and didn't find a listing yet. I would like to get in on this deal sometime real soon. I just need to get some money.

They put the items up on ebay upon my request, and the auction closed as soon as I did the "buy-it-now". I imagine they would do the same for you if you ask, but I wouldn't be surprised if they start putting multiple sets of SHO tokicos up on ebay (like they've done for several other cars) if they find out there is a demand.

Solid! That's what I'm gonna do then. Sounds decent to me. Let us know how the parts are when they arrive. Thanks again

Yes, that was the item that was set up specifically for me based on my request to power garage. Now I have to see if they will set up another one.

 

[SHOitoff95]

Do they have a website?

 

[DougLee25]

I don't think they do. Email them though and ask.

[luigisho]

I wonder if there is an ebay company with great Koni prices too?

 

[DougLee25]

I don't know but that would be interesting. What I do know though is that for a set of Tokicos and Eibachs for $565 shipped to your door is almost about $300 cheaper then anyone else can do.

True, but I already have a set of Eibachs sitting around. I'd prefer Koni, but I'd like to find a better price than what I've seen out there if possible.

 

[DougLee25]

Has anyone tried to email Power Garage lately? I tried 2 times in the last 5 days and I haven't gotten a single response. Basically all I wanted to know was if they could put up a set of struts and springs and then I could just buy them through ebay, but like I said I haven't heard back from them. Maybe someone could email them for me and see if they get a response?

bradman, how soon are you supposed to receive your goodies?

 

[jthomas68]

Fwiw,the word is that Tokico is not making our struts anymore.Once the last run was done,they`re all over with.I`d suggest getting them while you can.

Well shoot JT, that's just crap news. Any info on how large the last production run is and when it was finished. Shoot.
