There is no ******* way you should be paying $4000. I got mine for around $3,000. Type-S, pillow-ball mounts, standard rates, shipped to California from Bullet Proof Automotive. Avoid them like the plague, they jack prices up unnecessarily

I am certain that RHD Japan can get them for you for $3,000 or better.

Some other member here got some for $2200 or so from KTS, simply by emailing them and asking.

Contact Tom Nguyen at Speed Image USA, he gets me all my JDM stuff and more:

Besides me, user IPLG37 had them. Here is his for sale thread:
JDM Aragosta Coilovers -

Spooler has them as well, His thread:
It's about time, gutting the Nismo suspension.

Lastly, user Ape Factory has them. I found his thread about sourcing his through KTS:

AST can indeed rebuild these here in the states. All the parts are not 100% the same as what's offered on the AST website. Better or worse? I can't say as I don't have the knowledge to make that determination.

My setup:
As Ape Factory notes, AST can service these stateside, because i believe at least some of the parts used by Aragosta are sourced from AST
