Coilovers

TA Technix coilovers

Custom made strut requiring no strut exchange, height adjustable coilovers all round, very large drop if need be. TUV approved, good ride quality, lowered steering arm which helps reduce bump steer. £465 delivered.






Gaz

Gaz adjustable coilovers, custom made from your old front struts (may be able to arrange exchange/spare struts) Bump and rebound adjustable on a 3:1 ratio, custom spring ratings to suit your needs. They come with a 2 year warranty, the rears have been chrome nickel plated, and the fronts black zinc coated. £695.





Gaz adjustable front shocks, these are standard size so fit into a normal strut and the piston has been shortened to suit a 60-90mm drop. Ride quality will improve, and they are bump and rebound top adjustable on a 3:1 ratio like the coilover units. £185 delivered.



KW

KW V1 Coilovers. You can either send KW your struts in Germany to make these, or pay a surcharge (near £400!) And get that back when you send your struts in.

£894 delivered.




Others

Budget rear coilovers, very stiff, good for stopping those wide rear wheels rubbing! £120 delivered.

Super Pro polybushes, usually next day delivery -

Front lower arm set, inner and outter (both sides) - £65
Anti Roll Bar to chassis - £20

Errr, PSD hadn't been trading for a number of years when the TA coilovers came out...

You're not getting confused with Polo Performance Services, who used to offer to convert your front struts to coilovers for £350?

Can also now get KW's, will get a price listing up asap.

If you like the Koni's I can point you in the direction of someone who will rebuild them, or I can do Gaz's rear shock which has bump adjustment as well as the rebound adjustment you get on the Koni's.
