Just spoke to Shawn at Philcom(good bloke)and has suggested going for Boge shocks over KYB's has anyone here had any experience with these shocks?

Cheers,
Ange.

Forgot to mention it's only an additional 50 bucks for all 4 shocks if i was to go with Boge bringinging the total for shocks and springs to $670.

I think he was suggesting you use it and find this :P

The answer to your question lol (http://www.aussiemagna.com/forums/showthread.php?t=62083&highlight=Boge)

lol that was like the 5th one down. Just read the title and guess if it's relevant. :)

Couple of posts up Roberto.lol. Yeah, i gave him a call today, he's impressed with 'em and dave likes to drive long distance like me so that's a good enough recommendation.

Boge are sensational, the Motor Sport Beemers used them for years and may still do now.

These crap all over KYB and other cheaper style dampers

Thanks Mal, another thumbs up. Ordered them this arvo.

Thanks to Zero for his reccomendation also.

yeah i put some in a statsman at work with SL, pretty comfy......boss said they are a bit more exspensive then monroe and pedders though??

Yeah I had them Ange, still do have them at the back. Seemed pretty good, better than stock, however I haven't had KYB's so can't compare. I also got mine from Shawn at Phillcom.

If it helps, my KYBs were $150 more than Monroes... Boges are similar/tad more expensive than KYBs. Whether you go for KYBs or Boges, I reckon it's worth the extra.

i've had them in my car for 2 years, my springs are in need of replacement ~ shocks are still in good condiition, and they put up with a ride height of 595mm so yeh ~ there good.

Just for interest sakes, KYB shock have had an increase and are now almost on par with the Boges.

Koni :p

Koni :p

Worth more than the car lol.

I compared the KYBs and the Boges today and the body of the boges shock is larger in diamater.

oh cool have you got them in i have to go down this path verry soon, just dont know what i'm going to get how much are koni's?

good luck getting them delivered in timely fashion. I ordered these but the delivery wait was stupid so went with KYB's instead.

I had no problems with delivery as i live in Adelaide and Phillcom is situated here, so when they came in i picked 'em up.

I was offered Konis, Boges and KYB from an Adelade wholesaler who was happy to supply anybody else who was interested but dont want to screw our sponsors publically so need to email me for supplier details. DONT PM me I have enough trouble keeping under 150 PMs. My email is pwhite60@pcug.org.au
