225 without includes low mileage probably 2k not 3-4k. I ordered a full ms kit, it took about a month to get it to the dealership and have it installed. 4 shinka struts 4 springs . Buyer pays for shipping. 225 Great for replacement of tried suspensions. Email with any questions

 

Bump for a good deal, Shinka comes with Bilsteins Pics would help though buddy.

 

What kind of suspension does the shinka have? I am interested.

 

Bilstein shocks and same springs as far as I know. The 08' 40th AE, all Shinka's, and the R3 all come with Bilstein HD shocks. They also have foam filled cross members.

 

highly interested but would like to see some pics

 

can anyone confirm that these shocks will be much better than oem shocks on non shinka's or r3's? i have a set of lowering springs id like to get on but am waiting for a good set of shocks..will these bilsteins hold them a lot better than my stocks? if so extremely interested with money in hand

 

I will try to get some pics up sold sways and upper bar so 225 for springs and strut now. Buyer still pays shipping.

 

They are off the shelf Bilstein HD's. Yes they are better than stock Tockico's but not something you will notice greatly unless you track a lot. IIRC, the Bilsteins can be re-valved and typically Bilstein uses the same hardware on the street shocks that they use on their higher end shocks.

 

Anyone want the springs? I'll take the shocks

 

That's pretty awesome I didn't know they used bilsteins... That's awesome.

 

Lmao local buyer doesn't want the sways for their miata........ too stiff. So 300 for sways. included but no upper stress bar.

 

ok, my main concern is that my stock shocks won't handle the lowering springs to well and will blow out a lot sooner than later if I put the two together. That's why I was hoping these would be able to handle them much better.

 

so how much shipped to 17602 or 23909 (whichever is cheaper) for just the shocks?

 

Buy the shocks and get the springs for free. 225 if you're still interested I get you a shipping bid.

 

Ive had mine on tein s techs for 30k before I got newish oem shocks. Mine were not blown. FYI Oem gas shocks dont blow as easily as liquid filled ones.

 

sooo are the stock shocks I have gas or liquid filled lol?

 

will these shinka springs lower our car compared to the stock springs??? and if so by how much. i want to lower my car but i dont want to effect my handling negatively in any way......

 

the springs are the same as stock, but i assume that the shinka shocks (Bilsteins) would handle aftermarket lowering springs better then stock oem shocks for a normal rx8.

 

I'll get shipping quotes this weekend

 

ahh im probably gonna buy either new springs or just go with a good coilover kit. depends on how much i get reimbursed from the warranty i had on my other car

 

Gas filled

They will lower the same amount as regular shocks.

they will both handle it the same. Stock shocks are gas filled tokikos. Actually now that I think about it all bilstiens are liquid filled. However Bilstiens are high quality and valved for maximum performance. Also they are rebuild able and may be able to be custom valved.

 

They are actually oil filled with gas in a portion of the shock body Shady, all mono-tube shocks just use gas to pressurize the oil. The Bilsteins are just better because they can be serviced and re-valved.

 

Yessss. I guess they don't use hydraulic shocks anymore...

Good info here.

Yeah, I have dove into this stuff recently and from what I read no one really does non pressurized shocks anymore.
