seen a couple of 340's for sale with coilovers, whats available for a 340?

Regards Jordan

you can buy some for £550 or you can custom make some

550?! Mine are 370 including tax.

Sharky, they are available from Gaz on an exchange basis. You send them your old damper struts, they convert them. Within 3 weeks you'll have them back.

Where do you buy them from? my old struts are shit so wouldnt want them converting, plus i daily it so 3 weeks it too long for me!

i just bought some second hand off a lad off here. could probably find some at a breakers or some where. the just send them to gaz with a letter saying what you want done.

put an ad in the wanted section, a pair of bare struts. when i come to put mine on, my old struts will be for sale.

what do you mean by bare strut? just the shock? or shock and spring? or the hub aswell?, when would you be selling yours i was hoping to get it on coilys around july time

Nothing like that, just the bare struts. No springs, damper, top cup or anything. Dampers unscrew out of the strut, hub is separate to the strut as well. Take off the wheel bearing cap, unscrew the large hub nut, take hub off.

Have a look at this. The strut is the tube underneath the spring.

Buy mid june my coilovers should be on, so you can have mine then if you want. 30 quid posted.

Yeh okaay sounds good to me, just pm when you're selling them and I'll take them off your hands.
I'll ring gaz up this weekend and see what they say.

£370? Thats pretty dam good! You could spend that making your own! Have you got any pictures/more details/options on the gaz struts please jon?

Cool stuff sharky. I'll let you know.

Chris, I've seen pictures of them on Nev's 360 build, and Thomas has put up a pic or two showing them. I'm getting mine to fit the S13 top-mounts, which I haven't included in the price. that price does include springs though. The top-mounts would set you back a further 60 quid. I'll try and find some pics if I can.

As for the price, that's exactly what I though, to get them blasted, painted etc etc with dampers would be around that anyway, so may as well save myself the hassle, as well as get them professionally made! That and I can't weld, and if I could, I'd want to get to a very high standard first, don't want the welds failing on me!

Scroll down there a bit, Thomas posted a pic of how they will look. TIDY!!

The look tidy!

The £370 includes dampers, springs and top mounts? are they adjustable dampers?

Dampers and springs yes, top mounts no. That's the 60 quid or so extra. Still not a bad price for custom jobs! The dampers are top adjustable, like Dai's AFAIK.

Well after I have sorted lots of things on the car and bike, as well as buying a new bike ill look properly and getting some

this conversion that gaz do, do they work with the standard 300 series top mounts,is there a choice of spring stiffness etc? i would be interested in a set of these aswell, maybe someone should contact them about a group buy? see if we can get a nice little discount?

i need some advise guys as a suspension noob, what are the advantages of haveing the s13 top mounts? what advantages would they offer etc? how hard are they to fit? im just in contact with gaz atm so if anyone would be interested in a group buy i could have a word



cheers
