i got my shocks from DP motor-sport in warington.
with the fronts you need to measure how much fluid comes out and replace the the same amount, (as long as your shocks haven't been leaking)

The service manual goes into the exact amount of fluid required.

I`ve just checked my s12 manual for you.
It says 9.9 imperial fluid ounces, hope that helps.

Regards,
Ian.

Thanks all especially old and rusty for looking up the information in the s12 bible for me

. Ordered the KYB's ( £41 + vat each is that a good price?) and will be putting 288 cc (i can't think what an imperial fluid ounce is!) of ATF in the front shock tubes. Next thing is a dyno session once i get some ethanol for the water injection and an adjustable cam pulley made up.
