Default RB320 suspension

Can the Bilstein struts and spring still be ordered from Subaru or is it only second hand units floating about now? Would love to try a set

AFAIK struts are no longer available to buy new. There's someone on the RB320oc selling a set of new springs though.

Bilstein do offer a refurb service:

https://www.bilstein-shocks.co.uk/pa...ebuild-service

It might be worth contacting them directly to see what your options are.

Yes I have seen they offer this. I think something roughly like 60 quid a strut and a little bit more for a fresh powder coat.
I don't actually have an RB320 but am weighing up suspension options for a fast road car project I will be undertaking. Really like the sound of these Bilstein strutsand matching springs.
At least I could have a set refurbed if unable to source brand new........

Those springs aren't available now (I bought them). NotFromSomerset - I have sent you a PM re used front struts.

Cheers,

Ian.
