Has anyone used them? I've tried to contact them about a custom set of GAZ coilovers and had no reply being a fairly expensive product you would think they would be glad for the custom but no joy so far and there isn't a contact number

Issue is it's not an off the shelf gaz kit as it's for my e10

Hopefully he will get back to me tomorrow as I think I have directly emailed him this time! It's just good to know someone can vouch for them!

Can't you order GAZ stuff direct?
I am sure the compact ones we got were direct as they are compact cup spec with extra camber built in.

As above just ring and order them from GAZ.

As I mentioned above it's not an off the shelf job as the legs need to be shortened and machined to suit the coilovers and I'm running an e30 rear end on it so may need to adapt some some of rose jointed set up. If it was something I could just buy and bolt on it would be a perfect solution.

I visited Gaz in essex to buy some springs long ago, got shown round the factory and purchased my springs at the same time, if possible go there and give their technical guy your specific requirements!

That's really cool! I'd like to do that but it would have to be if i was there sits four hours away

Do you know what the specs are that you need?
If you do know just speak to them direct, I purchased coilovers for a datsun that actually runs jaguar suspension from them

Unfortunately not although if I could find out how much is machined from the legs I could measure the rest up with internal micrometers. I'm also looking for advice from the company about spring rates and rose jointing the rear end. I can hang on a couple of weeks on the suspension side of the build though as there is a lot to do elsewhere anyway

GAZ are really helpful, i spoke to them about getting suspension done on my MK1 Mexico and they were happy to answer all my questions.
