Gc8 bilesteins
 
Hi lads
I picked these up from a 94 jap classic at the weekend
I thought they would be prodrive wr bilesteins but they look like they were orininally blue not silver
Sticker links to jap company supplied vaguely reference to bilestein supplier out there but my japenese is poor
Any one any ideas
Springs are all eibach
All dry and look ok bar a cleanup of the strut housings
Would the part numbers be on the insert cant see any on the struts but there rough at the minutehttps://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...921ffb8c85.jpg

The Bilstein part number is normally stamped into the metal tube body, just above the lower mount and below the white sticker.
Eibach pro-kit springs 171lb/in front, 188lb/in progressive rear.

How do them spring rates compare to my current
Version 6 wrx ra

There were 5 versions of the ST non-inverted strut - one version was adjustable.
What are the numbers on the struts?

Spring wise - if they've still got ST springs!?
196 - 174
201 - 179
224 - 185
285 - 274

What colour are the springs you've got? Any numbers left. Any coloured paint dots?
