Help With Stagea Suspension!

[Rastus]

HI Guys!

Proud owner of a S1 Autech Version 260RS.

When I bought the car, didnt realise it had after market HKS Shocks.

Anyway, Shocks are now shagged and require a rebuild.

PROBLEM!

Nobody seems to be rebuilding them anymore. My local shops contacts wont look at them anymore and he is struggling to find someone who will/can.

All New Shocks have been suggested.

Does anybody know anyone that will look at these things, OR

What brands are worth looking at and prices?

was looking at about $1200 to rebuild. Cant really afford much more but I dont want to compromise on handling too much.

Any Suggestions?

Cheers!

HKS are way better than BC, so worth rebuilding! Try these guys http://www.shockreco.com.au/ or try here http://www.hksaustralia.com.au/dealers !

Way better? No way I would be rebuilding second hand anything over new BC's. Have you tried them or is it just your E opinion

[Zorro]

Clearly its your E opinion thats becoming the issue here! I have HKS coilovers (you have BC's) & I've been in a few cars with BC's, yeah BC's are good value & are a reasonable quality coilover, not desputing that! But HKS are exceptional quality & definetly worth rebuilding! Why would you throw away an awesome set of coilovers that only need a rebuild? Disposable society much? I rebuild my DH mountain bike forks every year, awesome shocks, once rebuilt they function just like the day I bought them, throwing them away would be silly, car suspension at this level is no different! Besides as he stated they came on the car (somehow made it through compliancing i assume?), so Its my opinion to stick with them & get them rebuilt & you will have a fantastic set of coilovers that should last you many more years! They were made to be servicable for a reason!

Try moto shops. They should be happy to repair them.
