MarkR Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Hi all, I got "donated" these shocks and springs and had them fitted and the whole car is stiffer and lower. Just wondering in these is the Bilstein/Eibach combo everyone is talking about? There's a pic of the new ones, and an old vs new pic... Cheers Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 They are the Bilstein dampers that were fitted as an option on some late model Supra, pics of new ones here: http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=92431 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkR Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 Thanks Nic. Do you know if those are the Eibach Springs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 My Eibach springs have Eibach written on them. It would be hard to tell under all that rust and crud on yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
