Z_Lover Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 If u r looking for cheap B6 and B8 have a look at this Page http://www.tiefenwer...issan-350z.html 3 Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) YEY So after seeing this very, very tempting offer, I decided to take the plunge and purchase a set of B6's from the company linked above as it was a substantial saving. It did take a fair bit longer than expected but it seemed like they had run out of stock, and then had to wait for Bilstein to shipout/make more. Ordered on the 21st Jan, arrived today 11th Feb - probably would have taken about a week normally I'd imagine. All contents as should be, well packaged and hopefully once fitted a crud load nicer than 100k old shocks Edited February 11, 2015 by RobPhoboS Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 At last!! What did you pay for them in total mate? Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) 524.90 EUR via Paypal - in case there was any issue's but no problemo. Edited February 11, 2015 by RobPhoboS Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 £400 roughly .... That's a great price Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Yeah, depending how the rates are (that's why I popped up EUR). You can add it to the basket and so on to see - the weight comes in at their 16Kg shipping price. Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 Ya spoke to a mate at euro car parts and he can do them for £460 ..... Just waiting for Clark motorsport to get back to me with a price When you planning on fitting? Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 (edited) I'll probably start tomorrow evening and Friday night. Can't wait ! Very good price as well there. Edited February 11, 2015 by RobPhoboS Quote
Z_Lover Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 Great 2 c u r satisfied at least and Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Cool dude .... Looking forward to the review:) Quote
SkylineV35 Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Are these just dampers to switch for the oem ones? Or do they have adjustments for height and damper settings? I cant read german lol Think im needing new dampers feels like my car is bottoming out alot and very spongy. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 Excellent dampers, we supplied and fitted a set on Monday... 1 Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 13, 2015 Posted February 13, 2015 They are replacement dampers without any adjustable parts, which is what I wanted. Of course they do sell ones that you can adjust. B6 shocks for a mild drop or standard spring. B8 shocks for lowering springs that go 30mm and lower (down to 50mm). Careful in spring selection, linear or very mild progressive ones (so my ones will be matched with tein s). Quote
SkylineV35 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Sounds like a plan I have been reading up about them apparently there B12 kit pairs them with the Eibach Prokit, Im planning to use them with my stock zed springs as Im already scraping everything as it is Quote
SkylineV35 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Also just a quickie, when under braking seems like my front end dives alot compared to before to the point even under heavy cornering it scrapes the front splitter, also when I go over speedbumps I notice particularly on the rears you can hear the sqssh sound as the shocks tackle the hump, is this normal or are my shocks shot? Any ways of testing? Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 You can test them by taking them off, compressing them and seeing how long they take (if at all) to extend. (try a quick search on Google or YouTube for testing broken shocks or something) Yeah the prokit is good if you want a 30mm or so drop. I don't want it like that for many reasons so did it with b6 and tein. Quote
