If there's plans to discontinue the a-spec....

will it be worth the time and money to buy the a-spec suspension? I mean, say for example you get the a-spec suspension only, your warranty (standard or extended) is up and 3 years down the road, you blow 1 strut. Will the dealer now charge us a shit load since we are now dealing with what will probably be a limited part? And since your changing out 1, probably best to change out the pair correct so now even spending more money. If this is the case, it almost makes sense to go with an aftermarket setup from the start right?

The koni yellows and tokikos are starting to look alot better with their lifetime and 5
year warranties respectively.

this was the point i brought up in the other thread about the aspec kit and never heard back from anyone else. i would assume they would still make it though not sure.

Hey thanks for the response back. Either way, I went ahead and just purchased the Tein springs and with GoBig's recommendation, am going to pick up some either neuspeed koni's or some koni sports along with a camber kit and just get everything changed / put in one take.

Was really considering the Tein SS, but the lifetime warranty of the Koni's sound more appealing.
