Bilstein Shocks

Is anyone selling these yet? I did a search and couldn't find anything. Had these on my NSX and really liked them. Would likely match them with RCE yellows or Swift spring.

There's a handfull of places selling them in Europe, but i have yet to see anyone offer a good deal, waiting for that to grab them. I guess stocks are still low as they were launched very recently.

Bilstein coilover part numbers for the GT86..

B14: 47-228337 (height adjustable)
B16: 48-228299 (height adjustable, adjustable damping)


Google will provide vendors based on those part numbers...

Prices from one UK vendor are £816 and £1287 respectively..

24-228435

Found these 3 P/N's listed in the Bilstein online parts catalog, no indication of price or available date but seem to have 2 direct replacement dampers in the works...at some level.

P/N's above are for the "b8 sprint" line of dampers.

From my knowledge of a few months ago Bilstein had nothing for people in North America. I noticed Europe has some and Japan has a bunch. Japan even has coilovers and shops have there own Bilstein spec coilovers. Not sure if the springs and camber plates are Bilstein tho

I loved my bilstein/H&R setup on my previous A4. This should be another great option too.
