No Bilstein Shock Part Number For R34 At All

[Harey]

After all the positive feedback on the bilstein shocks I am looking to get some. Obviously the sydney kid group buy is well gone and he seems to have gone elsewhere from this forum.

Reading through his thread it seems he was actually getting R33 GTR rear shocks for the R34 GT-T but with custom valving to suit.

There are no part numbers for the R34 at all.

Has anyone put bilsteins on their R34 GT-T outside of the sydney kid group buy? If so what did you do?

would also like to know this, as im looking to do a smiliar package to the sydneykid bilstein/whiteline type deal

Heasmans in sydney are I think the australian distributors. i have had my Bilsteins on my r33 Gts-t rebuilt by them over the years. Contact them , they should be able to help you with part numbers , etc

Ok phoned Heasmans Suspension (Australian Distributors of Bilstein) and they have some of the shocks left from Sydney Kid's Group Buy although they are back to full price. They quoted me $660 for a pair of Bilstein rear shocks for an R34 GTT, plus $44 for the height adjustment option. I have ordered these.

Also I spoke to a high up person in Koni and they say to use the R34 GTR part number which is 8041-1339Sport. Yes they have the right fittings but I thought they were physically longer. Theres another thread on here with a guy who fitted GTR coilovers to his R34 GTT and they couldnt get the car low enough.
