[QUOTE="leforte, post: 199292, member: 1943"] sesat 88 go check it out. all hotbits for bmw are made to order as speedworks does not carry a high demand for them as compare to other makes, which they mass produce everyday. so, you will be getting something hot off the oven per se. go look for yujin, really helpful guy. initialM the e36, e46 only runs a full coilover setup at the front and a separate coil and absorber setup as per the oem setup at the rear. both front and rear are height adjustable. the rear setup comes with CNC machined and threaded adjustable cup. the same setup applies to the bilstein, hotbits and KW. rebound adjustment are mostly located at the top of the strut, and compression is usually located at the bottom. you can get your KW from singapore, much cheaper than over here since there is no import tax for these kinda items. but i would advice getting the hotbits instead, fully serviceable and upgradeable HERE in malaysia. you will be lucky even if you can find a reliable service centre for most of the other brands KW and bilstein included. anyway pss9 are lifetime warrantied in US and Europe and if there's anything wrong you get a full exchange, no repairs. sadly it only applies there. over here, you will be lucky even if you can make a claim. Please note: for those converting to coilovers, please remember to replace all your top mount with fresh oem/aftermarket ones and add a strengthening plate to it. TAK TAK TAK sound as decribe by danpromote could be indication of a bad / cracked mounting. [/QUOTE]
