There, ordered GC`s today
I`m as far as I know one of the first in Europe to buy this.

Gonna do a custom install much like Luc st. Pierre, and weld a custommade ring on the strutbody to center the sleeve.
Also gonna explore the helperspring option, to eliminate the unsettling of the spring from the top hat.

Didnt you just recently post a topic about getting real coilovers??

Any body knows how the ast are comming? I so want hight AND dampner adjustment

yeah, I was thinking of the same coilovers that sixpack bought, but I I need correct springrates and good dampers.

So I use my Koni adjustables and rebuild them with GC`s

So that's what you spent your money on!

Hehehe, actually not, I just sold a bunch of dvd`s to get the coilovers

(you wouldnt be interested in Simpsons season 1 + 2 & Buffy the vampire slayer season 1? original dvds of course) hehe

How did the installation go? Was it hard? Thinking of buying GCs... Or is there any other that is easier to install? Do I need anything else than struts to complete the installation?

I havent installed them yet. waiting for spring.
I`m doing this the right way the first time, and that includes welding metal-rings onto the struts to keep it aligned and safe, helpersprings, to keep the strut preloaded.

I`ll do this the same time I install my SRD front control arm bushings.

For the people who doubted me, here are som pics of the beginnings





I got Hyperco helpersprings aswell, and my Koni struts are at a Koni specialist getting some luv
revalved and rebuilt (matched to the GC`s), and shortened rod to complement the lowering.

Rollcage is being installed now along with 4-point harness etc.
lots of stuff happening now
Also got Mazdaspeed upper strut mounts.
I`ll post some more as the stuff gets installed
