V5/6 JDM STi red struts part numbers?
Anyone got Subaru part numbers for these red V5/6 struts?
Has GOT TO be for the red coloured V5/6 STi red struts, front struts, if not for rears too :thumb: |
Here we go:
Spring/Strut Part Numbers I was looking at all the different options for Impreza Suspension and found that quite often i cant find the part numbers for the stuff i want to price. Can you guys help me out with the favored Spring/Strut set up and model numbers for the items. I also noticed that some stuff is no longer available, is there alternates that are equal?

Are you looking for 2 as an upgrade mate because your current ones are shot/leaking, or was it a general enquiry ?.

You can have it totally refurbed at Bilstein with new rod & seals for about £90.00 per strut

It depends on which strut you have :Suspiciou,if you have bilstein dampers ;)then they definetley ARE serviceable, as i had my prodrive ones serviced 2 months ago at bilstein in hinckley. Give them a call on 01455283407 :thumb:

Ok mate,looks like it's plan B then

Hi, I'm from the US and I have a set of now-broken Prodrive WR Bilstein struts. The rebuild cost for the struts are high here, so I was wondering if the v5/v6 struts is a good fit for the Eibach P1 red springs since I can purchase the v5/v6 struts from Subaru America based on the part numbers provided by @bonesetter.
Pardon my lack of knowledge on these parts as we didn't get any turbo models in the US before 02. Are v5 & v6 struts the same? I have a 2000 Impreza RS coupe (GM6). Thank you very much for the info. |
V5/6 reds are the same.
Speak to a poster called '2pot' as he seems to know a whole load of info about suspension and the best combos. Also how much would you be charged for Bilstein rebuild? |

Bilstein in Poway, CA is charging a based price of $127.50 USD not including rebuild parts nor housing & round-trip shipping. I sent some photos for estimate, and got a quote of $150 per damper purely based on photos of assembled strut, so it could be more. The strut housings are also quite rusted on mine, and Bilstein in CA said they don't stock housings, so I also have to somehow find new housings as well. I'm guessing the total cost for everything will probably be $500+ for 2 rear struts.

Thank you for helping out! |
Your guess is as good as any (including mine), but if they are originals you're getting, then 16 years does seem long enough for anything to dry - maybe?
I suppose you could have a quick search or even try phoning a 'grease manufacture' and asking to speak to someone in their tech dept? |

From what I was told by Bilstein, the Poway, CA location is the only one that can service these particular struts. But thanks for the inspiration; since it's so expensive, perhaps I'll give the UK location a call since I'm on the east coast of US in NY.
Would you happen to know which UK Bilstein can service these? |
http://www.bilstein.com
Then just select United Kingdom |
Thank you. 2pot also put me in touch with a gentleman at Bilstein UK. I will report back once I get a quote.

I'll likely get V6 STi struts as Bilstein has disappointed me greatly. |
I'm afraid Bilstein's once prestigious rep is at an all time low - customer service and their products too
Motorsport folk I talk to, speak of their coilovers (B14's etc) to generally suck (as you might say) |
It's such a shame, WR99 was a great product. Any idea how much I can sell them for?

Wouldn't like to hazzard a guess at value |

Well, it's been a week, and I haven't heard anything back from Bilstein UK after sending them several emails.
I'll likely get V6 STi struts as Bilstein has disappointed me greatly. I'm currently chasing him for my refurbed WR99 kit. Dealing with them has been frustrating but I'm hopeful the stress will be worth it! From what I've read the Bilstein struts are superior to the KYB inverted reds but the proof will be in the pudding. Don't give up on them yet chap :) Paul. |
Ah, thanks for the info, Paul. Any idea when he'll be available and how much it costs for a full rebuild?

Depends if your housings can be saved. A rebuild into existing (good) housings is £80+VAT (20%) per strut, recoating is an extra £35+VAT per strut. Hope that helps mate? Paul. Edit: I've just this second (1.45pm) got through to him so he is about today :-) |
Definitely helps. Thank you. Sounds like it's cheaper than US Bilstein.
