I'll have to look but it was probably a few days shy of a month. I had to wait an extra week as it was "Golden Holiday" in Japan last week and everyone was out. Shipping took 10 days so not too bad. The whole process was very easy and I saved a bucketload of money ordering from Japan myself. Enough to put towards a set of lightweight rims!

Edit: Placed my order April 7th so a bit over a month. There was a bit of a delay initially due to the holiday coming up and they wanted to make sure the extra wait was going to be ok. Once I confirmed, they placed the order and the coil overs were built.

I'm hoping! It'll be the second set of Aragostas that I've owned. I'll shoot some better photos tomorrow for everyone.

If you don't mind how much does a set of these go for from Japan? And do they make them for the X model?

VERY NICE acquisition!!!

Oh I know all about the Golden Week....was trying to get something from Blitz and they stopped me dead in my tracks. Lol

Glad the overall wait wasn't too long. I'm sure you'll love them.

Please let Kenny know if they make them to fit the X model. He can buy them and once he gets tired of them, I can buy them from him and have them worked over to fit my EX. ( love it when a plan comes together!!!! )

Nice package arrival there Ape, those should be everything you've hoped for. And since you've already had a set you already knew that, lol.
Great score!

I'll have to check and see but I don't believe they make them for the X. Price for the S model with rubber upper mounts like mine is just south of $2300. The E model with rubber mounts can be had for under $2K. I believe they come with steel dampers instead of aluminum and valving for road use and not track.

Edit: Do you guys know what the Japanese chassis designation is for the X (either coupe or sedan)?
They list the following:
CVP35 (assuming G35)
CKV37 (G37 Coupe)
V37 (listed as an Infiniti and not a Nissan which means it's a sedan?)
HV37 (also listed as an Infiniti, assuming Q50)

Ok did a bit of quick google research. The HV37 is the code for the Q50 AWD. If other shocks made for the sedan AWD also work on the coupe, well, they're available for the Coupe X.

They do have crazy spring rates, 15K front, 7K rear, which means it's a true-type coil over in the rear. The E type is 14K/6K but also looks to be a true type with that sort of split front to rear.

There's another site that sells them and their English may be a bit better. https://www.nengun.com/aragosta/coil...pension-type-s

Alternatively, contact Bulletproof and see if they can get an answer. But let them know they can be had for far less than what's listed on their website. I have a direct contact if anyone would like it. Just PM me.
