Short of sending them to Heasmans, there's a mob in thommo that I wouldn't recommend that was a Bilstien dealer back then and he tried to tell me BC coilovers are "great" - truth is they're garbage especially roads up in Norfies.

So yeah, Heasmans or Fulcrum (dunno if they're still selling Bilsteins now, I asked them earlier this year and they do).

[Count Grantleyish]

What Bilsteins do you have? PSSx or B46?

[emts]

Didn't wane names but you're on the money.

[Count Grantleyish]

So If I'm in trouble, I know who I'll point fingers at

I take full responsibility,  i used to run centreline rims on my rx4 back in the day, just saying..

[Leroy Peterson]

Centreline-something?





(I can say it because I'm a customer)

[admS15]

[Count Grantleyish]

Nice balancing job Leg Ham with cheese.

[Birds]

Isn't that the mob dezz usually recommends?

[Count Grantleyish]

No idea, only went there as it was a local to me at the time.

[Kinkstaah]

I don't even know what shocks I have, Only that they are pretty good. I wrote down B6, so I figure when I had them off the car in the past... I wrote this down then...

Bilstein Aus said the leak is a bit normal as they tend to weep when used normally, as long as it's not leaving trails or actual drops of oil on the shock itself it's not blown. They also said a lot of shops diagnose them as blown when in reality they are working as expected.

Kind of nice of them to not just take the money to fix things.

[Count Grantleyish]

If there aren't any sounds that are bad, crisis averted?

Worst case, if they're fubar, grab new pairs/set.

So apparently the Tuning shop up in QLD with the 2 yellow GTR's is gone bye bye after a tax investigation

[admS15]

Will probably reopen again with a slightly altered business name as they have done in the past...

 

[Count Grantleyish]

That's true.

Just like all car yards in Parramatta Rd after investigation from RMS
