­GAZ Adjustable All-Aluminium Dampers for Classic Mini

Just when you thought there couldn’t possibly be any more new products for the classic Mini, GAZ has come up with an all-aluminium bodied, fully adjustable, lightweight damper for the classic Mini, especially for use on lowered cars.

Fitting GAZ dampers to a classic car enables the bump/rebound rate to be adjusted to suit the conditions and driving style by means of an easily accessible knob on the side.

GAZ can set the dampers up with valving for general road use and they will also be suitable for the occasional track slalom and sprint use; alternatively, they can be set up for serious racing, which is where this lightweight damper will probably see most use..

GAZ dampers feature a zinc plated body for longevity and a plastic cover to protect the body from mud, stones and dirt.

All units are individually tested before leaving the factory and are covered by a two year warranty for road use.

GAZ Alloy Dampers for the classic Mini can be ordered as part numbers
GG2023 (front) and GG2024 (rear) at £64.29 each plus VAT.

GAZ can produce custom made dampers for many other classics by working from either the original specifications or the original dampers. Price is dependent on application.

Fidanza Lightweight Flywheel for Audi S4 (also fits Audi A6)

Audiʼs 2.7 litre engine can achieve big time performance gains with Fidanzaʼs lightweight aluminium flywheel

Fidanza, Americaʼs leading performance flywheel specialists, have a direct replacement lightweight aluminium flywheel to improve the performance of the 2.7 litre ʻ00-ʼ02 Audi S4, the ʻ01-ʼ05 Allroad and the ʻ00 – ʻ04 Audi A6.

The Fidanza aluminium flywheel replaces the heavy dual mass standard flywheel and improves the power-to-weight ratio making the engine more responsive and improving performance.

The Fidanza aluminium flywheel is made from high-quality machined 6061 T6 aluminium with a 1050 steel friction surface, CNC machined fastener holes and chamfers.

All Fidanza flywheels now come with a distinctive green protective coating on the friction surface.

Fidanza flywheels are suitable for use with just about any clutch disc material available – from organic to Kevlar and even sintered iron. The flywheels are incredibly durable and come with a heat-treated ring gear and military grade fasteners. Fidanza flywheels are equally suited for fast road, trackday and pure competition use.
