    I looked into coilovers for my 35, got told Bilsteins would cost NZ$2000. What exactly do you get for your money? Pics perhaps?

    Dave just told me he found some KYB's he slapped in them.

    OC - Still wouldn't mind those Koni's. Didn't get a chance to measure them.

    802
    "special D"

    length, from the built in spacer at the bottom to where the built in threaded bit will sti at the top of strut tube = 415mm
    without the built in top ring (other shocks use a seperate but and spacer at the top) it is 390 long

    diameter = 40mm

    what is the internal diamerter and length of the strut tube?

    fully compressed length From spacer bit at bottom top the top of threaded rod = about 470mm

    fully extended length = 660mm

    ke70 struts arn't 2inch I/D are they the same internal diameter as ke35? because i'm sure i've seen koni yellows pop up on forums from time to time for sale for ke70 struts.
