Shockwarehouse is out til mid June, i just got a refund on my order from them because they lied to me.
eshocks is out til mid June, i just got off the phone with them.
The entire globe is out of new ones due to production hold ups in Germany. Early june for rears, mid June for fronts. If you can wait, just put your order in at a place you trust, but I wouldn't hold your breath... they can always push it out even further.
I had originally heart May 15th, now its more like June 15.

I finally got my rear shocks sent from eshocks. The fronts were supposed to ship June 19. I've been calling these guys every couple days for updates and looks like they have slipped to July 8. Anyone know of somewhere else besides eshocks that might get them sooner? This sucks...
. Guess I should be getting them soon.

I meant the rubber cushions between the spings and the perches. I finally called a Mitsu dealer and ordered the strut accessories. Guess I'll have to wait another week to install.

^^^I dont believe so. I'm not positive but I think the diameter of the bilstein cylinder is larger than the KYB's on the front. I imagine the rears would probably be the same. If you're switching over then you should just order new ones so you're not stuck waiting like me.

So unfortunately I don't have the oem suspension on my 03 gsr.
Can someone verify that I'll be needing these oem parts to go with my bils hd/spec r combo?
Rear: 3 to 12

Front: 10, 12-17
