09 R3 Bilstein Suspension

Category: Steering & Suspension
Price: $200
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part Fits (you may select multiples): Series I, Series II
Location (US State/Canada/Int): OH
Item Condition: Used

Hello all,

As said, used Bilstein Suspension from my 2009 Rx8 R3. The entire suspension has about 70k miles on it. No signs of failure or performance decay, another way of saying they still perform very well. No leaks or issues with them, just got a set of coilovers and took these off. There is a bit of rust on the lower end of the assembly, but little to none on the top. If you are interested, I can make time to post up pics.

Comes with:
-Strut and shock
-Tophat nuts for each unit
-Hub nut for the front 2 units

Do you know if these would sit the car lower than the stock S1's?

With R3 springs and shocks it sits as stock. OP, you might have an easier sell if you include the springs too, for the S1 crowd around here.
They're a nice improvement btw.

I apologize for my idiocy here, I meant strut and SPRING not strut and shock. What I am selling is the entire assembly to bolt right into the car!

Some pics. Cleaning would include light sanding and metal polishing of troubled/rusted areas, and the entire assembly will be hand washed (no pressure washer)!
