Ebay ****e FTL...and £700 on coilovers epic fail IMO lol GAZ come shiney and will stay shiney...just out of interest where are you purchasing FK's from...dont remember seeing them for that much when i was looking.

And you know that Highsports are front coilovers only...

[amggsi]

They look to be the same as the FK's that LMF are doing for around £175ish. I've a set in my GSi, but it hasn't been driven yet, so I've no idea what they are like!!!

yep i know that mate!! i dont want to cut/weld anything to fit them!!

as stated it depends what you want them for!! ohh and they were like £695 for the polished ones i just rounded them off and they were on rimstyle!! but if i want them why is it a fail?? ive looked at the gaz ones and im not interested they dont go low enough ect i know how much they cost they are just not what im after!!

[mayhem]

german quality? i never seen them lol

if you want a not to expensive coilover set (fixed rears) you could look into vmaxx. these also have camber adjustment.

[Pistol Pete]

GAZ will make them to your spec..for the same £££ IIRC. Thats what they did for me. Dont need to cut weld naff all either. Mine fitted no worries.

What are you using them for then? Just out if curiosity....

www.venommotorsport.com (http://www.venommotorsport.com) i have found them to be the cheapest for suspension. Do alot of nice/good parts IMO.

slaming my sr to its **** and then leaving them in my grandads garage for 360 days off the year lol

so GAZ will make them to what spec i want?? for the same discounted price??

[Pistol Pete]

IIRC, yes. Ask in the club thread section...or get the deatils and ring them. I had a custom set made up.

But in all honesty whats the point in spending that amount of money for it not to be used??!! Coilovers only really benefit cars that will see track action. IMHO...

i may do that like but they are definately coilover rears?? i mean i want like 120mm drop on the back!!

[Pistol Pete]

Have a look at my project thread...pics of the rears and what it took for them to fit! Piece of pi..

[~~joycey~~]

My mate has the 150 ones on his corsa and they are very good for the money! better than a shocks and spring kit for 200 or wotever imo.

[dj_wudgey]

id rather spend the extra money though then you know you will get quality thats imo though!!
