Have fun with them, I have had nothing but issues with GAZ suspention components.

I keep on top of them tbh...removed and greased reg n adjusters used reg with bit of oil to keep them good.
They were rebuilt before I bought them too

What was the suspension knock in the end?

I had my set rebuilt also, fitted them to my DT, which has done nothing but sit in my workshop, and not covered a single mile, and one is leaking again already....Personally havent drove on a set that feel that great either, but willing to be prooven wrong.

i nearly bought some gaz golds glad i didnt, throwing my money at bilstein now

[Piggy]

Hmmm. I like the way they feel for my car...but with all the weight out...it could feel very different for someone else...
I also noticed after it sitting for a while a little misting on one rear damper...was a bit worried...cleaned it off...driven it...and since, never come back again. Odd that.

Any joy with a buyer for it?

Not advertised it properly tbh.

Wana tidy up a couple areas first, rear beam strip ans service, rear brakes, wiring, paint boot/rear floor and tidy engine bay a little.

Then advertise properly

Thankyou...

Although as a comparison...I know what I prefer.


Note new rims and rubber. Pro race2 and federal 595 rsr

---

Also note skewiff bumper...close inspection sees that someone scuffed that corner in a carpark. Gits.

Hmmm. Think maybe the shorter 300lb springs are going coil bound. Bit firm for my liking too. Need to clean up the 275s I think.
But ruddy ek.... She goes so flipping well and never breaks a sweat doing it!! Guna miss.it

[Anton]

Ahhh I agree! Didn't know they were shorter, explains alot

[welshpug]

how short are they?

[Piggy]

how short are they?

6" I think. 275 ones are 7" iirc cant remember exactly. 300lb ones are shorter for sure. By an inch.

Agree with what?! Lol

[welshpug]

crikey that is short, I think I'm on the same or higher rate but a much longer spring.

[Anton]

They bottom out

[Piggy]

Yh. It only on a big bump but as you know if its happened to you, its horrible

---

What length you reccomend welshy?

[Stef205]

geezzz ive got 9" on mine.

[Piggy]

geezzz ive got 9" on mine.

Hmmm.

I see my issue. Lol. 

May just clean up the 275s

[dr_jekyll]

I cant work out if your cleaning this up to sell or keep. Seems you gonna make a loss and theres no end to you piping money in

I havnt spent anything on it other than fuel in months tbh.

My target is ready for official sale 1st of December. Not a great time of year...but thats my plan

[Piggy]

Ok...so the old springs were 8". So the new 300lb ones are 7".
Still think they are going coilbound

[Eeyore]

still dont think youll sell it!

[Piggy]

still dont think youll sell it!

If I dont sell it... then project 16v and kev wont happen and will be sold.

Cant let that happen.

[Piggy]

Can't quite get the damping right now. Rather bumpy journey on the M40 yesterday. Going to put 275lb springs in again and reset things.

In other news:

She sounds hellish in Westfield Carpark...oh my.

   

Also, obviously was cold yesterday eve, but recorded my lowest intake temps. 3.5degrees cruising on motorway. 2.7 degrees at 30-50mph.

...and 595Rsr tyres don't like the cold/increase in engine performance due to cold. Lite them up rather easily on overtakes

[Dum-Dum]

Sounds like incredible fun dude

I felt 17 again, blasting through an underground carpark for lolz...keeping one step ahead of the valet security

[toseland]

my exhaust now sounds horrific... amazing but horrific lol

[bashbarnard]

I still keep quiet exhausts on all my builds. i feel like i should branch out at some point and maybe get something a little louder. its gonna be a shame when you get rid of this. yours and dum dums where the ones that got me into the 2.1 and a major contributing factor for me bening into 306s amoung other builds on here.
