Thanks. Gaz make the coilovers to order. They require your front struts as they use your existing stub axles on the new units. Took about a month from first email to delivery.
Couldnt fault the service from start to finish, would recommend. Hope this helps.

I where going to, but Re-speed is not what it used to be since Sam took over.
Read this: http://www.rx7club.com/bad-fugly-busine ... s-1011269/
And with shipping and import taxes from USA, the price will be the same as having my struts rebuilt in GB.
I have also thougt about asking AVO forhow much it would cost. I realy like their 40mm pistons for stability...
I had a lot to do with them many years ago, when we built Ginetta G30 in Sweden.

My seven is equipped with Re-speed rack and pinion, and I just love driving the car after the change.
