bilstein coilovers for fd
Hey guys, Ive been getting ready to sell my bilstein coilovers since I upgraded to ohlins but I have been unable to find any info on them as to what to price them at.
I've seen a lot of the yellow bodied bilstein shock w/ springs for sale but I have the blue bodied height adjustable coilovers. I wish I had pics to show you guys exactly which kind I have but I'm away on a business trip for 2 weeks and they are in storage back home.
If you have these coilovers would you mind please helping me out by pming or txting me @ 916-943-5028. Or reply in this thread if it is easier for you. Thanks guys!

Your car and all - sure they're Bilstein?
The only height adjustable ones, stock, (as distinct from adjustable spring platforms) I'm aware of, are the Showas...which are blue. Dunno how much they bring over there, I wouldn't expect very much here, maybe $5/600 at best.

I've never seen anything but yellow bodied Bilsteins either. For what it's worth I bought a little used set four or five years ago with a Ground Control adjustable height kit and two or three sets of Eibach Springs of different weights . As I recall about $700 shipped.

Hmm this is interesting. I am 100% sure they are bilstein coilovers and they are for an FD as I had them on my car. I have seen the showas before and I am positive they are not those. The color blue on the bilsteins I have are the same as the Bilstein blue they use for their logos and stickers. They also have the bilstein stickers still on the valve body. Once I get home I will definitely look to see if there is any part number or anything on the body.
Perhaps these were only available overseas and not in the states? I have no idea. If anyone has got any info please let me know!

Actually, I think there might have been blue ones on pre 99 cars, vague recollection of seeing a few on yahoo years ago.....non adjustable though iirc.....you'd be lucky to get 300 here for those. There have been a few vendors selling racing Bilsteins over there like these otherwise, I wouldn't expect a plush ride! -

Dang I was hoping those potentially were the ones i had but they aren't. I guess I will just have to take pics and post them when I get back home. I will also try contacting bilstein US office to see if they can help me out.
