u13 stock shocks
« on: Jun 4, 2008, 08:33PM »
Hi all,

Just have a quick question - does anyone know what company manufactures the stock shock absorbers on the AUS delivered u13?

I'm asking because I was in an accident recently (some guy thought it would be a good idea to pull out in front of me), and the repairers had to fit a new shock absorber to the front passenger side. The shocky that they fitted was a $450 item from nissan.
Naturally the insurance company would only pay for a single shock absorber, so now I'd like to get 3 more, but I really don't want to pay for nissan ones.

I have heard of car manufacturers using shock absorbers in their cars from other companies, like for instance the shockys in my toyota cressida were made by KYB, so thats what leads me to ask.

Cheers.
