325 each seems expensive unless you are doing DA's. I converted my old WRX struts myself. Unless he is also going to revalve them for you.

It is more expensive than say a set of Koni shocks for an S2000 but relatively cheap for custom made shocks. I wouldn't know where to begin in converting them myself and don't want to convert them myself so what other choice do I have? What I need is to find a used set of struts. I don't understand people who post saying they have them and then never post again or answer PM's sent to them. Makes me wonder what kind of people frequent this forum.

I have a set of standard front struts that were replaced this spring. They are from a standard boxster, but as stated, other than valving, all of the struts for the 986 are identical. Let me know what they are worth to you and I'm sure we can work something out.

Sorry I can't help you with finding a set of struts. But as far as SA's versus DA's go, any SA Koni can be modified to be a DA. If you want truechoice to do that for you I'm sure they would be happy to.
