I hope for your sake your Bilstein contact is using the American date format

In Europe, that would be 6th October

Ha. There have been about 20 Bilstien dates so far. I have as much faith in them delivering shocks as I do that crazy minister predicting when the world will end.

From the look of your avatar, you need a steering wheel and some seats before you worry about shocks!

Speed, I've ask Jobu to bring forth shocks for you.


Your friend, Serrano.

I have a full set of Boges and Eibachs on the shelf waiting to go in, so I'm all set.

Bilsteins and stock springs are a nice set up on the street. Had them on my 87 S4 and current GTS and they work very well.
