Holy sh*t $927 for a full set of B8's is so cheap!! When was this sale??? Cause i'm looking to get a set as well.. you've got a gen 2? Did you speak to Greg at GSL? sorry for all the questions because I want a set for that price too!! hahah XD I spoke to Greg a few days ago and he quoted me like $1130 for the B8's... hmmmm..
it was a End Of Financial Year Sale 20% off
omg nice.. too bad ive missed it. wondering if i should wait for his next sale haha
I ended up going with Koni Yellows. The package with the Eibach Pro Kit springs and Whiteline swaybars is unreal. Bilstein B8s were not available when I tried to buy them, but tweaking the stiffness of the Konis in the front has proven to add another dimension to my set up at the track.
What about the new B12's??? I'm going to enquire about them shortly...
B12's hmmm another addition to the bananas in pyjamas?
Ok, purchased, now waiting on delivery. B12's... essentially a kit with Bilstein shocks and Eibach springs all in one. Will lower the front by 25mm and rear by 15mm... as for the shock rate... I'm guessing it's similar to a B8. All up, cost me around 800 EURO delivered (approx $1000 AUD). Now just gotta find a reasonable price on fitting and alignment.
That is so damn cheap.
It's the Bilstein B12 Pro-kit.

Does anyone know if they make the Bilstein B8 for the Mazda 6 MPS? I'm really after a set to import hopefully from Europe as I have been told its cheaper.
Can anyone provide links I have been trying to look through the forums though some links are out of date and the Bilstein site does not show much on the B8 and/or Mazda 6 MPS
Sorry Panspeed, the mob I bought my B12's through in Germany only stock kits, so B12's and above.

You are looking at about $1000 from GSL (Aus) GSL RallySport, The Motor Sport Revolution!
Alterntively, if you are not fussed about local warranty, 6 MPS 2.3T 06-08 - FR&R Tuning| MAHA Dyno Rolling Road Tuning| Stage 1, 2 & 3 Engine Performance Upgrades - (Powered by CubeCart) I think was around $750-800 shipped to Australia, shoot them an email.
Part numbers for the 6 MPS for b8s are BE5-A259, BE5-A260, BE5-A261.
