Gabriel Spring and shocks

[anaksarawak]

I had an amazing experience on a nice 3er with Gabriel shocks during the recent MFest. Am very pleased with the nice feel but cant believe its price! Just a quarter of B6 or B8 Anyone here with Gabriel? Your review please.http://gabriel.com/our-products/car-light-truck-van/maxcontrol/I forgot to ask him where he purchase his.

How did it handle corners n straights bro? Compared to stocks?

If I not mistaken Gabriel shocks are mainly use by 4x4:wink:

Is there any dealer here carry shock for sedan car in Malaysia?

Price only quarter of B6? This is interesting!

The car belong to one of Mfest committee, my bad for not asking for his number. The ride is firm but not too hash, very little body roll.

This is good alternative to harder suspension compare to oem. By the way Munich auto sells them. My friends e34 M60B40 uses it. Nice and firm. But his set up is standard ones.

Thanks pussy, will head over to Munich now.. May I have their address?

Rm140 each for the rear is really good price. I paid rm420 for boge shocks. Would have gone for Gabriels instead. Used them on my accord and jeep before. Pretty good. Lasted close to 3 years..

Interesting, just as about the time i'm thinking of changing my rears too.

@anaksarawak, do you know exactly when the stocks are coming? And does munich do installation as well?

 

[anaksarawak]

Munich just sell no installation as per my knowledge

I found a good website as reference to check the parts numbers when sourcing for replacement OE
