    RVAzhp's suspension replacement....

    So guys, my stock suspension is shot. the passenger side front strut has leaked all over itself and the driver side seems to have sheared a bolt...sounds like i have don't too much #yoloing in the car but in reality i think just stock suspension after 140k gets worn out.


    SOOO I have purchased some bilstein PSS suspension setup. Price wasn't so much the factor as so many good reviews and they were recommended by lots of people including the shop i take my car too. anyways, they have arrived yesterday and hopefully this month i'll have them installed and ready to rock.

    This thread is for pictures once i get them and any tips you all may or may not have during the process.

    PS-yes i bought the reinforcement plates for the front and the rear.

    Nice purchase, love mine. It has "Made in Germany" stamped on it so you won't be disappointed

    I love new parts. :-) I just did this on my ZHP, but with KONI Sport dampers. I bought the complete refresh kit from Turner, which will run you about $335: http://www.turnermotorsport.com/p-11...m3-not-xi.aspx

    Definitely replace all mounts, bushings, and nuts. Skimping on $100 of parts on a $1,200 job is not worth it haha.

    Didn't buy complete kit, but bought the strut reinforcements and front bearings and end links (they were in horrible shape). First front kicked my ass cause of the strut top bolt, that thing is tricky as hell. Will probably replace rear mounts. Here's the front-
