You guys get a great deal in the UK. In Australia their $4500 AUD and thats not fitted.
Your deal with grizz works out at around $3000 AUD. WOW!!!!
However as much as KW's V3 are a very good coilover, the ohlins stasis set up is in a different league. It too is considerably more expensive. Saying that I need a good price in OZ for KW suspension as the ohlins set up is really a little advanced and considerably to expensive for me.

I'll do them at £1450 fitted inc vat.

The H&R Kit is £1350 inc vat fitted.

I've got Hotchkis Arbs as well at a very good price.

These prices are rock bottom...
I should be able to vouch for the Hotchkis sway bars when I fit them in 3 weeks time, good price too. Thanks Grizz.

BTW do you do laser allignment as part of the fitting of KW's?

I'd love a set of Ohlins stasis but TBH I'm not an accomplished enough driver to notice the difference and the price differential is considerable over KW's. Also, very few places stock or distribute them.

P_G this company http://www.aurok.com/ are in the process of putting together a Ohlin suspension kit for the RS4 (B5&B7) maybe worth giving them a call. I hear that it will be under £3k and considering something like Bilstein and the like are just under £2k its worth considering.

That's still pretty much double a set of KW's and I just don't know whether I would get double the involvement / enjoyment / satisfaction / whatever you want to call it from them.

stasis are better than kw but not by that much and are way over priced, kw3 are perfect for what i need, go on a track,cruising, unless you are racing on the track week in week out you dont need the stasis imo but im sure plenty will differ, ive driven a rs4 cab in germany with the kw3 and itt made my standard set up on my cab look just a little bit silly is an understatement
