Hey guys,
Question, what other cars use the same dampers(shock absorbers) as the Mini? Its time to change mine, and I'd like to go for the good ol KYB std oil filled ones (442001 and 442002) as mine is a road car for casual use.
My local mini parts supplier however is selling them for over double the price of what they are listed for at Mini Spares (and its not even KYB specifically, just some generic ones). To me thats way overpriced. I get that shipping to Malaysia is expensive, but I dont want to pay so much.
I tried at a few large car parts stores, but none of them have dampers for Minis. Giving them the part number isnt helpful as they all stock and label by the car its for rather than the part number.
So I ask, what other cars are the mini dampers used on? Preferably japanese cars like toyota, nissan or datsun as those cars are very common here (especially old cars).
