Hey all,

Looking at possibly replacing the B4 suspension.

What options do I have for $600-1000???
Anyone got anything?

Cheers

Infinite options:
Brand new gen 4 bilsteins, re use your springs and use whiteline top hats. $650 + fitting would be my suggestion. If you can find gen 3 STI pinks or gen 4 wagon STI pink rears you're laughing. But not needed. Would be a complete transformation.

Chances are half the bushes are stuffed. Factor between $30 and $50 each. Any suspension shop can identify them for you and quote on replacements from whiteline or something, genuine stuff is fairly expensive.

Cheap coilovers. Might scrape in at under $1000. Dont expect them to last.

Yeah, wasn't thinking coilovers at this stage.

So the Gen4 Billies will fit hey?? Any suspension places in aus stock them normally??

I've had sti pinks before and i love them, but i'm really really struggling to find them (apart from buying them new from japan).

Cheers for the heads up on the bushes etc.
