Replacement Shocks

[Gbmw]

Gents
Pls help. My shocks are worn and badly. Just discovered yesterday.
I've called round and no one and I mean no one stocks for the 6. (normal shocks) besides the agents........and the agents want......R18k

Any aftermarket/upgrade shocks recommendation's and contacts ?
Awaiting a quote from Bilstein guys in Centurion[/b]

Car is 05 E63 645ci

To think I just replaced my rear sneaks (Tyres) :argh:

Why not go for a coilover set? Should cost (maybe) upto 10k for a set that you can have dampening and height adjustability on.

IF you car doesnt have any fancy EDC settings or anything of that sort.

Try http://www.3stech.co.za/bmw-e63e64-c-147_767.html (i have never bought from them so cant comment on their service) ..but they have a set listed at R9,499.000

Edit: Also give the guy that built my coilovers a call .. Mark Sax.. he's out in Wynberg (sandton area).

Since its a sixer why not get some Koni FSDs ?:thumbs: And they should be a whole lot better than OEM. There is a guy on the forum running them on his 6 cant remember who now. Maybe he'll pop in for comment.

Otherwise call Imcomex and get Bilsteins shock replacments, std, sport etc.

But chat to Moranor.. first.

ok , got the guys from 3Stech too, on BBM now, quoted me R10999 for xyz coilovers fully adjustable with 2yr warranty or race kit R14 999(too much for me tho)

Do u have details for Mark Sax?

What do u guys think of xyz coilovers? All I did to the 6 was Eibach springs and 20's....not knowledgeable at all on coilovers ?

one size fits all dampers found on cheap coilovers are very crude when compared to a properly developed damper system...

did Centurion come back to you? I dont have these in my product list from Bilstein SA so It may have to be imported

Koni dont make for the 6 only the 5...
