FCP Groton refers to being widely know on various forums. If they are any good seems like it would be a great inexpensive upgrade for all E34 owners at $345 with free shipping.

That stuff is showing up all over the local parts shops too.
Saw a guy walk out of a shop with a load of Hamburg Tech, and TRW boxes.
The parts guy asked if he wanted something else, he just opened the boxes, looked it over and took it.
Vee ave vays of dealing vid your kind...........
thought TRW was pretty good stuff?

I know Hamburg Tech is made in India, contrary to what the name would lead you to believe. It's supposed to wear out really quickly, but I don't know.
I'd say, stick with Lemfoerder.
how did you find out that its manufactured in India?Originally Posted by miliue

I knew exactly what you were talking about before I even clicked on the link. The kit is a POS. The parts wear out very prematurely, sometimes in less than a year.
Thanks guys. Pretty much what I expected. My f/e ins fine but I thought if I posted this it may save someone else from making a costly mistake.
