Exclamation ****UCF 20/21 L-Sportline Suspension****

Folks, I’m selling my Adjustable L-sport line Suspension System consisting of Eibach springs, and Bilsten heavy duty shocks. These were made for the LS400 UCF 20/21 chassis (They were made specifically for this application). They are height adjustable, but have to move the perch, and you need to have them off the car if I’m not mistaken. They can’t be adjusted while on the car, like coilovers.

These have about 11K on them. Mostly driven on highways from Tampa to Melbourne, since I frequent Melbourne a lot where my cousin lives.

These shocks and springs not only make the car look MUCH, MUCH more appealing, but also enhance your driving pleasure. The effects are tighter steering and improved handling over stock. No more brake dive, or jerking at acceleration. More feedback from the road as well, which in consequence gives a bit of a firmer ride. Nothing unbearable, rides as comfortable as my friends stock Infiniti I30t. A must have for anyone who is interested in better handling, or planning on getting some wheels. I had plans to fit this car with an L-sportline kit, and wheels, but plans fell short since I decided to go forth with gradschool.

I am attaching pics of before and after installation:

BEFORE:



AFTER:



Here is the offcial info I found online for the L-sportline's:
Lexsus LS400 LSprortline Springs
Sportline

• Extreme Performance Meets Extreme Style
• Race-Car Like Handling
• Lowers Vehicle 1.7" - 2.3"
• Progressive Spring Design
• Excellent Ride Quality
• Part of the Eibach Sport-System

Eibach Sportline is the extreme-performance spring set created for the extreme enthusiast—the one who craves a race-car attitude for maximum street performance—with the lowest possible drop, but with the exceptional ride quality you expect from Eibach.

Engineered with the same care as our Pro-Kit springs, Eibach Sportline springs achieve legendary handling by aggressively lowering your car’s center of gravity, using our precision—engineered progressive spring rates.

By radically lowering your car’s center of gravity, our Sportline springs dramatically reduce squat during acceleration, body roll in corners and nose-dive under braking. By using our proprietary, progressive spring design, our Sportline springs provide the ultimate balance between high performance, extreme lowering and comfortable ride quality. When combined with today’s wild 18", 19" or 20" wheels and tires, the result is a car that handles just as white-hot as it looks.

Retails At $1499.00!!
$350 + ACTUAL S/H.
Locals have priority due to weight.

*Will post pics of the actual springs and shocks very soon.

Wow, that's a hell of a drop for some new struts/springs....hmm

Hopefully my KYBs & Tanabes will give me something like that...or at least close...

Good luck GRAND, this is a heck of a deal considering the Bilsteins are like 500 anywhere I looked, and the Eibachs are like 300 or so..

PS..What does the decal on the back window say?

It’s actually a realllllyy good deal for anyone out there, and is evident by all the interest I received in only 12 hours. However, these will be sold to the first who sends me a cashiers check/money order. (i've had way too much problems with Paypal.)

Thats a CLUBLEXUS decal back there.

I paid $50 to have these shipped (box is very heavy). So thats what im going to charge, but if its any less then that, I will refund whatever it is remaining (honostly have no intention to make money of shipping and handling.)

Says UCF20/21F on them (second pic).

UCF20 = 95-97. UCF21= 98-00.

So im guessing they do. I dont think shocks and springs are different among 95-00 LS models. You can check part numbers by looking at Eibach website if you'd like.

Guys-

The book replacement Bilsteins only have 2 perch settings. The L-Sportlines will allow you to drop it more. Each strut averaged out for front-rear will be about $110 at the lowest price. Eibach springs for ours are discontinued (As far as I last heard) but some are still out there at $225+ set.

This is a good deal.
