gaz fully adjustable front and rear coilover[new buy 07/05/]

[mikekean]

why have you got some lying around? how much you looking for em?

[Trise30rally]

I had some on that old 316 of mine are they the same size? otherwise a mate of mine has broken a few 325's so he will definately have some spare....

[BadDave]

so wats the turn around on sending them your struts and you getting the finished product made. i share a workshop with my brother and my working area is infron of the door so the car cant be laid up for more than a 2 weeks really as he is also building a rally car and needs to be able to get it in and out the shed.

When I sent mine back for rebuilding,it only took a couple of days

Will obviously take a little longer to add the threads and adjusters to the strut bodies

I was well impressed with there customer attitude and turnaround time

HTH

Dave

[elf]

probably no more than week turnaround.
but they do need front strutts before.

[Nick_TBMW]

Fit a Z3 plate and all will be fine.

And on this point you are absolutly certain??? Do you have a pic of these Z3 plates?
I'm still uncertain, this is a lot of money to shell out in one hit, not that i'm slagging! It looks the mutts nutts
Do GAZ require a pair of struts first or is there a surcharge?
Cheers,

I've got the Gaz coilovers and the only strengthening mine has on the rear towers is a strut brace (whch is effectively Z3 plates with a bar between them).

No problems so far and I've done 2 trackdays and about 2500 miles (some of those are on very poorely surfaced antqiue Roman roads).

[oze30]

Bugger!! If only I could get the struts off for that long!!!

[agreen]

elf i sent you a pm did you get it ?

[agreen]

ahh balls to it ill have a set - if there is a

reasonable deadline for sending the old struts off ?


are the top mounts you offer the adjustable ones

i will need to do some reserch into the spring rates i need so will need to wait till that is sorted but i think it should not take to long

can you give me a buz on 07866845511 please thanks

[Karan]

i also want a set of these but will be calling to discuss spring rates for my car (heavy engine), and also are the front top mounts camber/toe adjustable?
also for reference, have you got a contact there who i can talk to and what is ure name again mate so i can quote you please

how many peeps so far? need these asap, car handles like a pissed pig at the moment

[agreen]

i am looking for a contact number to finalise details also need to speak to a person before spending £700+ as you can appreciate mate

[Karan]

oh and these are the GGA top of the range ones yes?

[Karan]

and will they rub on rear tyres or rear strut housings?

[Beemer Redeemer]

I'm registering my interest on these.
I have just disassembled my front struts ready for sending to Gaz anyway so a group buy seems like the sensible thing to do.

Might be wrong here (so please correct me if so), but i think you need to send the 51mm struts to be used rather than the 45mm struts.

I am building my E30 to enter in the PBMW cup (starting end of March). I just need to check if we can run coilover rear suspension as most of the competitors cars ive seen have been the shocker and separate spring affair.

As agreen has said, i will just need to look into spring rates. But i'm provisionally in.

Can we definitely confirm they are coilover rears ? Cheers.

no three are porvisional we (i ) need more info before we go rushing into it as state baove they say provisional next to them !

i have had no contact yet from the guy rganising this but i am iin no rush to rush in i want to check they have the correct spring rates etc as i am sure the other do to

so wee need a number >?

[Karan]

yes i need to confirm rates and any rear turret/wheel issues

also need to know the nature of the front top mounts and if they are camber adjustable

can someone please shed light on this as i would like these sooner rather than later

[Dave_M3]

They're sexy!!!
Shame I'm not ready for these. What's the normal price on them. Would be perfect for the track car, might get some during the summer.

[gareth]

i'm not after any as i have ledas already but a point to check with GAZ...
Do they clear the fuel breather pipes etc that run through the offside rear arch? the ledas don't so at present, i've still got my old pigtail springs on and have removed the springs from the rear coilover bodies. i think the pipes will need re-routing inside the car or something...

hi mate sorry not been on been buisy.it would be best if you phone gaz direct as dave was originally half owner leda until he brought out.
for personal reasons i wont discuss.
as for the rest all i said is i need five to go ahead.
if you all pm me your details then i pass them onto dave.
he will contact you all and awnser all questions on spring rates etc.
you are still not abliged to buy until your happy with what your getting after that.i only needed five to get ball rolling not to hand over any money until you all been contacted by gaz shocks direct.are we clear now.

[oze30]

I'll go for it.. as long as we can work out some spring rates for the ass end of a touring with a 55l LPG donut and an M60 in the front!!

[agreen]

you have a pm with my details as you requested mate thanks

[Karan]

hello dude

prob go for same as mine: 600 front 300/350 rear

should be a good starting point and if necessary you can change from there. Those rates are track biased, even though mines a daily.

[MJG]

MOFO! That is perfection. Don't have the money yet though - poo! I was unaware of true rear coilovers being available. I will save my pennies for a set, hopefully the group buy will still be on! Brilliant.

hopefully there will now be some sweet handling e30s in the world after this!

[MJG]

Yeah haha, this is really good, even if I miss this group buy I can hold out til another one hopefully comes around, or I'd happily promote Gaz in the British Drift Championship this year for the same trade price in a few months.

[agreen]

do you just need to send the shock housing off to gaz when this all goes ahead ?

or do you need the inserts ? thanks

[agreen]

Eww also i have rouge engernering rear top mounts will these be able to be used ?/ sent off ? thanks

[Karan]

u can send empty struts
as for the rear top mounts, the gaz coilovers have rose jointed top moounts already on them so u wont need ure rogue ones-sell them

[agreen]

i'm not going to call him, i'm not looking to buy any! just thought it should be checked / considered by anyone looking to buy a set as it'll add a load of work to fitting them.

[ppcsam]

If this GB is still on then I am definitely interested. However I have run LEDA coilovers in the past on my E30 race car and the rears did catch in the arches. I want to be sure that this won't happen with the Gaz GGA units as they are going on a road/trackday car this time and I want to keep it a little more civilised.

Elf - I'll send you a PM with my details and would really appreciate a call from someone at Gaz to confirm spring rates and potential clearance issues etc. If that all checks out OK then I'm in and I'll get the IS on stands.
