I've decided to sell my Gaz Golds. I bought these around 18 months ago, but only actually fitted them just before the car went back on the road about 8-10 weeks ago. In that time, it has done about 500 road miles and certainly no track use. Here is a photo of them before I fitted them. I expect that they will look practically immaculate once removed.



I am planning on fitting my Koni's over the weekend, so these will be available next week.

I had to have a collar made for the front dampers as I wasn't happy with how they sat in the hub. This part was made from Stainless steel and can be simply slid off the damper if it is not needed.

They cost around £800-900 to buy new, I'm looking for £625 (plus postage).

I'll update this thread with pics once I have removed them.

Thanks for the offer. £600 is the least I will take.

The rears are off the car now and are in VERY good condition, just as I expected. Once I get the top mount hardware for the fronts, I can take them off too.

For a car thats used 95% on the road and with a full interior, I just didn't feel that the benefits outweighed the fact that they cause the suspension to be firmer and naturally as a result, with full trim, you get rattles.

I had no issues with my old set-up, so decided to go back to that.

Had I been more interested in handling and track-days, I would have persisted.

HTH.

Thanks Clarke. Yes, as per earlier. £600.

Rears are off the car already and in excellent condition, just as I expected. I'm hoping to get the fronts off this week. If I don't have a firm buyer by then, they will be going on Ebay, where they WILL sell.

best of luck on ebay mate, have you seen what they sell for new on there?
don't be shocked when you do some research! i think £500 is a very reasonable offer!

In all fairness i payed less than £700 for mine brand new but then these aren't ropey old things that have been on a car for years like a lot on ebay!

These are Gaz GOLDS though, not regular Gaz shocks.

I have seen what they sell for new on there, hence my price. I think the last time I looked they were £875.

d4 rst

I'm waiting to receive the front components I am missing for the Koni setup from a kind PF member, once I have those, I will do the swapover. Hopefully this week sometime.
