If you go for brands like Bilstein, Boge or KW, you would be fine. yes, they rectify the nikasil problem. Engine transplant on E38, well.. i don't think that's economical compared to the facelift one. Facelift for BMW is not just about engine, but it's a evolve version. BMW do not make same cars every year. That's why BMW have the VIN code to identify the exact model and build to obtain your parts. For the SLS, you can check if it's working. Sympton can be viewed from outside, if your SLS failed, it will sag behind and your car will ride like a boat. But if it's fix, it will ride like a magic carpet. When I mean retrofit, means putting in the non-EDC BMW E38 shocks and springs into the car</blockquote>
