An insert for 275? What and why? Is it just rarity? Some strange one off design that no other car uses?

Yup a terrible shame there aren’t Monro-matic or Gabriel’s aren’t available for the 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) But there is always KYB.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bootyshake.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) But seriously - there is a huge difference in the internals both in quality and function between cheap dampers and Bilstein, Boge, Koni. If you want more detail on why the costs are high, I’ll post / link you to a mini dissertation if you really care (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) |
