If you are fortunate enough to own a Ford Escort or Sierra Cosworth 4×4 you will probably want to exploit the car’s potential on the track as well as drive it comfortably on the road. The GAZ Gold Road & Trackday Kit allows you to do both.
The kit includes suspension springs and adjustable coilovers on which the ride height can be adjusted through 60mm. The coilovers have a coarse acme form thread for ease of height adjustment and to ensure that they remain in good order even after considerable service.
Damping rates are variable by means of an adjuster knob on the damper bodies.
The GAZ Gold range comes with a reservoir filled with a high viscosity index multi grade oil to reduce fade and a gas cell to prevent cavitation under harsh trackday conditions. However, springs (included in the kit) are supplied to the customer’s specifications according to the vehicle’s intended use – so, in this case, road and track day.
Camber adjustable top mounts can also be supplied as an optional extra for dedicated track vehicles (although they may be too harsh for comfortable day-to-day driving).
All the units are individually tested before leaving the factory. The damper bodies are now finished in the new GAZ black plated coating to shrug off dirt, dust and minor gravel debris.
The GAZ GGA422 coilover kit for the Ford Escort and Sierra Cosworth 4×4 includes front and rear dampers and springs and is priced at £975.52 + VAT.
(NB: A rear strut brace will also be required.)
