I have found the distributors in Melbourne to be very helpful, and they have a lot of knowledge

 

gt - not really sure where you're coming from or what point you are trying to make but if you have a thing for Bilsteins and they float your boat, all power to you. If you're saying you bought x off the shelf and threw it on your car and it worked better than what you had - cool.

However, if you wanted to debate the valving options, set-up and tuning af various offerings and results on a particular vehicle, I'm sure that would make for some interesting and informative discussions - we would have to be a bit more objectiive than 'paint' and 'junk'

btw, I've used/ using Bilstein, Koni, Leda, GAB and DMS over the years in road and race applications and have no axe to grind wrt any of the above.
