Bilstein Coilovers R32 GTR

Hi, 

I have a set of bilstein B8 with a coilover sleeve that I had rebuilt and revalved by Baker Bro's in victoria. Baker brothers are very well known in the Rally world for revalving Bilsteins and generally only work with race teams, hence dont advertise themselves. I found them on the net after a bit of digging so sent them off from Sydney.  These were done about 12 months ago. I asked them for a fast street/tarmac rally set up with the valving. The car has sat the whole time in the garage and I am going to go a different direction with it hence they have not even done a single KM.

The spring and shocks/springs have some scratches on the paint as with any older coilovers and will need new rubbers at the top mount, however thay have been refreshed and revalved which is the expensive part. 

I am not sure of the rates however they look to be on the higher side (maybe 8 or 6kg)  however with the right valving and application this should not matter. Bilsteins have a wide range of adjustment so you can always change them out if you need harder or softer springs.

Cost to me was $770 inc GST + Shipping both ways to baker bros. I will let them go for $800, I need to clear all the parts I have unfortunately to pay for other things.  I think it very fair price for a custom Bilstein coilover set up. 

Cheers

My instructions to Gary Baker was to revalve them to suit the springs and also my application which I mentioned in my original post. If you wanted more info I am sure you can call him to verify.
