Default anyone running GAZ coilovers on a 3dr

I was looking into possibly buying some Gaz coilovers for my 3dr nxt week

I was just wondering if anyone is running these at the moment as any comments would be great.

I will be using the car for weekends and trackdays so would like some input as to what lbs springs to use

many thanks

im running them and think they are shit! lol.

i had std suspension on -30mm springs before, and it handled SO much better than what it does now. The coilovers destroyed the handling on my 3dr. maybe its just me.
