Hello all want to order some but not sure which ones to go with, i had Avo's before and had no problems with them but i hear alot of people do.
i have never heard anyone saying a bad thing about Gaz

Anyone got any tips

Cheers
Rich

Ive got AVo's which i got second hand and had no problems and handle's like a dream but like you said some people have had problems so i would go Gaz

Just to put my tuppence in I wouldn't do coilovers at all unless you are going to be using the car predominantly on track. I've always found Koni top adjustables with decent springs to be more than up to everything thrown at them.

I don't even run coilovers on my track car.

Gaz have excellent customer service

i was gunna get gaz ones when i was looking for new shocks but i didnt wanna wait and no one had them in stock so went with avo, never had a problem with them, and i hear you can have them reconed at about £20 a shock, but cant say if thats 100% true as ive never had to have any of mine done

i wouldnt buy either. Had avo's, didnt last more than 4 years. thats bloody expensive suspension if you ask me. yeah there overhaul-able but never again. handled well though

Cheers all, i wanted coilovers so i can set the ride height. Will prop go with the Gaz as they are zinc coated

Gaz

I had to decide between the two just over a year ago, and went with Gaz because they have proper customer service, and as far as I know, don't give you any need to require that good customer service, unlike the Avos, which quite often seem to start leaking, then trying to get the issue resolved is a nightmare

Oranoco - I disagree entirely, assuming you mean coilovers are too stiff for road use. Stick on whatever springs you like, play with the damping adjustment and you can make coilovers feel even spongier and softer than standard base model springs if you so wish!

j7aoc - Great point matey, as is the case for many others I'm sure, if I'm getting the Mk3 out, it usually means I'm not going to be doing fuel/tyre-friendly driving

gaz coilovers all the way mate....oh im an official dealer for Gaz to so for excellent prices give me a shout

I went for GAZ coilovers but haven't used them yet,so it's good to hear some positive comments on them

Hey all! Im a newbie to this forum, actually run a fiesta based kit car (still kinda counts!) and wondered where I could get some Gaz coilovers with relatively soft springs to fit a Fiesta SI? Any advice/guidance would be great
