i don't know if gsf has much coverage north of hadrians wall, but they are everywhere near me & not exactly useless..
they have a website too
Already spoke to both, the replies were........
Headquarters told me to use google to find a supplier.
GSF said they can supply the black shock but not a suspension kit.
Tried a couple of places on the net and they never got back to me.

Which suspension kit do you need? Do you have a part number?

Nice price tag!!!! Haha are you going to give away there secret and tell us what there specially sourced springs are??? money is eibach :)
I have bought a full AVO kit. Anyone any experience with them? What are they like? I currenlty have FK coilovers in the front and koni dampers in the rear with Gsi springs. I intend to use the AVO's in the front and leave the rears the way they are as its handles nice the way it is.

fk coilovers no good ?
fk coilovers no good ?
I've had no issues with the FK's, competition use only too.
But I'm asking about AVO's.
I wouldn't have another set of Avos , every time you hit a slightly bump it sounds like your car is going to split in half and the ride was harsh too

I picked up a set of Spax RSX (front coilovers and adjustable rear dampers with separate springs) ridiculously cheap secondhand from a friend. Im hoping these are ok as I want a softer ride than my current set up.
Anyone else tried these?
for soft, simply use new std ones...
