ohlins suspension rebuild

[turbominicooper]

hello all,

have been doing the discs and pads on my starlet gt and noticed i have a full set of ohlins suspension.

does anyone know of anyone who can rebuild/service them?

 

[turbominicooper]

anyone got any input on this?

really want my rears rebuilt.

 

[sx_turbo]

what sort of ohlins are they?

coilovers or normal shocks?

these guys can probably point you in the right direction http://www.bgmotorsports.co.uk/suspension/

 

[turbominicooper]

normal shocks.

I got a quote off them but thought £140 per shock was a bit pricey

£140 per shock is reasonable for ohlins

you reckon?

that would make a full set rebuilt for £560, pretty sure a new non-ohlins set of shocks would cost that, no?

Yep you could buy a "new" set of other branded suspension but they will be no where near as good.
Basically you will have brand new Ohlins for £560? Bargain in my eyes..

But here is the top dogs in the UK for Ohlins

yeah, but if you were to compare like for like with brand new ohlins

edit: rory beat me
