#1: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: moose, Posted: Fri Jan 18, 2008 2:41 am ---- Bro. I need some advice regarding Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber.
I ade tanye supplier, which one is better. Then he advised me to buy Gabriel for my rear absorber . Gabriel Absorber RM150/pcs and Blinstein RM170/pcs.
For your info, I drive e 36 and my rear absorber dah tak sedap
For Gabriel absorber i cuba tekan , keras as compared to blinstein.
Kalau front absorber which one is better blinstein or gabriel , or any suggestion to other brands.

#4: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: aRRrgghh, Location: KeranaMu MalaysiaPosted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 4:57 pm ---- Yub Gabriel is cheaper than Bilstein. What we are talking here is Bilstein Black rite? Gabriel is stiffer (harder). What I know, It's from the USA. For balance ratio and control, I would suggest to stick to 1 type of abs for all 4 tyres.
If you want harder, go for Bilstein Yellow (mooore expensive) or Gabriel. Bilstein Black and a combi with Eibach Pro-kit is a legend. I'm running with that combi too. Comfy and just nice fer cornering too.
Some people like to mix & match. Up to individuals. But, be careful as ur handling & comfy might be compromised =) Good luck.
#5: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: chriseunos, Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 6:48 pm ---- im using bilstein yellow with H&R springs...stiff and not comfy but the handling is heaven!
#6: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: harry, Location: Petaling JayaPosted: Sun Mar 02, 2008 8:45 pm ---- As for me BILSTEIN...why? Cause i notice if you are not using stock engine.
Try not to use stiff cheap abs,thts y it does not last long.You may have super handling but will your body exterior last. It will crack your body kits....trst me.
I experience it...unless banyak $$$$$...
Dnt torture your ride.......let it live......

#8: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: Mr_Bimmerasta, Location: The Republic Of PenangPosted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 2:55 am ---- Want to know what different H&R spring & Eibach spring?? Cost of both spring??
#9: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: chriseunos, Posted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 7:15 am ---- H&R is more stiffer and its not as low as Eibach. Eibach is softer. This is my experience. If not mistaken, both springs cost the same at RM1200 brand new. I stand corrected

#11: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: aRRrgghh, Location: KeranaMu MalaysiaPosted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 8:11 am ---- .. but where to get H&R??
#12: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: chriseunos, Posted: Fri Apr 11, 2008 10:38 am ---- maybe ask Calvin Tan?
#13: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: loafer, Posted: Sun Apr 13, 2008 7:19 am ---- Hi there...I got my Bilstein B8 + H&R springs from Msport in Sunway. For E36 the H&R spring isn't a perfect fit into the upper cap (dunno what its called but the the top part of the spring rests on the cap) so need some forcing in.
I have yet to sit in a ride that has Eibach springs with Bilstein B8 so I can't make any comparison but from what I've read around in a few other forums, H&R is definitely stiffer compared to Eibach. If you're looking for comfort you should try Eibach.
Alternatively you can go for coilovers KE KE!

#15: Re: Comparison Between Gabriel and Blinstein Absorber Author: chriseunos, Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 5:55 pm ---- stick to H&R, u'll be much happy. Eibach also can
