Friend that has a car-parts shop was asking me would there be interest in these since he got a few sets of these for various cars recently.
I've seen them fitted to a Integra Type R and the ride and handling seems to be extremely good even though the car is practically on the ground, lol

I'm not going to go too much into a description of them since most of you have got the Gaz ones by now, lol.

We need at least 15 to go ahead, They are fully adjustable stuff in Height, Dampening and Camber and all the usuall bells and whistles, lol.

Retail price is 1000 euro I think

Have pics of an E36 kit on my phone that I'll post up as soon as I find a USB lead

If there is interest in this in the next few weeks, I'll be just passing all the questions etc onto my mate and gettin him to investigate more if people need mor info. I won't be able to really help out too much until I finish college at the end of May

No E30 mentioned!

[Dave_M3]

I know that, lol. That's why we need at least 15

[oze30]

How will it work with M3 stuff?

[Dave_M3]

You mean for 5 stud stuff?

I'd like to get these made up for 5 stud applications since thats what I want on my track car and a mate here that's building an S50 drift machine.
But he was thinking more people might be interested in just a bolt on job for four stud.

Have you got E30 M3 stuff or E36 parts?
Vaguely recall E30 bits
The rears would be the same for any E30 anyway in fitment (Stand to be corrected)

[oze30]

E30 M3 parts.

If it comes out at a reasonable price, then yeah..

[Dave_M3]

Cool, I'll put you down on the list provisionally just to get some sort of numbers going.
I haven't a clue what it'll end up being really since he didn't really give a definite price yet, Always hard with these kinda things i suppose.
I think they around the 900 euro mark off the shelf anyway.
Only snag, it's the wrong time for ye guys to be buying since the Euro is strong at the moment, lol.

I'll see what the story is for M3 parts
And find my fecking usB lead to upload the pics!!!

[oze30]

lol!!

How did the steering parts go?If I give you the size of a set of ends, can you get those put on the hoses?

[Dave_M3]

Didn't get a chance to sort them out yet
Think I'll have to put them off until the summer when I have more time.
Ya, that won't be a problem, should easily be able to get different sizes
What are you up to with diffterent ends, lol

[Dave_M3]

Pics up... only of E36 items, but wll give a good idea anyway

[oze30]

Any news on this?

[Dave_M3]

No, never really had enough interest to go ahead with it.
The stuff for using the E36 front suspension parts are an off the shelf job alright but for E30 front struts it looks inlikely there will be enough people looking for it.

Pity since it would have been a relatively cheap coil-over

I'll have another chat with him over the weekend if I see him though to ask him about it again though

[JimmyC]

You'll get a full set of GAZ GOLD coilovers for less I think (not sure on RRP only the PBMW rate)

If a number are interested i'll ask them to fix a price for the e30zone, but dont want to step on Daves toes

(Dave tell me to delete this if it is stepping on your toes)

[Dave_M3]

Nah, your fine mate.
Well, the BC coilovers (in the pics) to use E36 parts are around 850 off the shelf at this stage so that's about £650.
I'm not sure what exactly what the E30s one would be but probably around the same

Are the Gaz GOLD the same coilovers that were on a group buy here a few months ago?
