So, up for sale again I have my custom MG ZS Gaz coilovers.
Spec'd by Drew (Roverdose) I had these on my ZS turbo.
They are modified to suit a very low ride height, this unfortunately does not work for me due to a steep driveway :( My midbox can't take much more scraping on and off the driveway!
They have recently been refurbished by Gaz and have done no more than 200miles since. They have been fitted with uprated springs (very firm ride!) but they do handle incredibly well and really suit the ZS chassis. Ideally these shocks are truely at home on track.
I would suggest you fit the standard ZS top mounts as the bearing type that are currently fitted certainly is not helping the ride comfort.
Only taken them off to fit a more road/drive suited coilover.
Looking for £250

how have they been modified for a low ride height? - have they cut down the rod at the top?

these are on the money, if the new owner doesn't want the top mounts I would be very interested in purchasing the top mounts which will make these coilovers even cheaper!

The bodies and shafts have been cut down to suit a lower ride height and not affect the travel stops.

If it was any other month I would have these... but I'm mid job change so I probably shouldn't spend money till I know all my bills are paid for the next month or so! :(

I've even still got those spare GAZ springs still... lol

I'll have to dig through some emails and messages for some pics, let me have a little looksy!
Spring rates are 12kg/mm on front and 10kg/mm rear, but again i'll have to dig through messages to confirm 100%
I know they are certainly much greater than standard!
