Hi all
Need some advice on some rear shocks, my current ones have about 10mm of play in the mounts and are all rusty so i think ill replace them. Any suggestions on brands/types? something good fun on track :grin:

Ahh I'll take a look at them, are they adjustable? What's everybody else running?

Bilstein B6/B8 maybe?

^ Am I using that site correctly? If you follow through Renault -> Clio I -> Williams then it only shows the 'Motorsport' version and they are 19,500 EUR? I checked a few others under other Clios and the prices all seem to be many thousands of Euros. E.g. B8 for a valver is 11,600 EUR/17,900 EUR? Can they really be that much or is there some currency conversion to be done here as it is not actually the EUR price that is displayed?

i think maybe 195,00 or 116,00, 170,00. ... is it close to other prices if its hundreds not thousands?

Without looking, I tried to get the Bilsteins for the Mk1 Williams and the only ones on the Bilstein site were thousands of pounds.

I spoke to Oreca in France and they had one last set in stock to fit Mk1's, and they were height and damper adjustables. Funny the Bilstein site didn't list them...

There isn`t everythink on the site. Like front B6, Gr.N for Williams, front Gr.N for 1.8,... They do have all this, even with the tuning option on the motorsport segment ;-)
I`m getting Gr.N rear (already have the 23.2mm torsion bar) and B14 for 172 front this summer, hope will be a good combo.
