Currently looking at a Bilstein damper kit for the HDi. Plans are to fit the Xsara VTS beam I'm rebuilding at moment. The front end is getting overhauled with new TRE's/BJ's/Droplinks/VTS front ARB/Top Mounts & bushes. I want the car to feel tight again.
Can't decide which Bilstein kit to get though.....the black OE B4, the uprated OE B6 or the B8, which is designed with B6 damper rates but meant for lowered cars. Pretty count out the B8 as I don't want to run any lower than I am. The car has GTi6/VTS front KYB shocks and is exactly how I want it (about 2-3 fingers between tyre and arch) so OE type dampers.
But, is there a difference between Xsara and 306 as the kits for B6 are different including the price!
