If ever there was a company that knows a thing or two about tuning BMW suspension then that honour must fall to GAZ. They have been supplying, sponsoring and winning BMW race series for many years now.
GAZ has just re-released its popular GAZ Gold suspension kit for the BMW E30, but now the dampers and struts are coated in the company’s latest super-tough Black Zinc finish. The new protective finish will ensure that the dampers will remain in good order for many years despite what the track and road throws at them.
Ride height is altered by means of adjustable spring seats on the front coilovers. To ensure consistent ease of operation the height adjusters have a coarse acme form thread so that adjustment is possible even when the unit is caked in dry mud. Separate springs and dampers are provided for the rear.
Damper bounce and rebound rates are adjusted by means of easily accessible adjuster knobs on the damper body. The GAZ coilovers come with integral gas cells filled with a high viscosity index multi grade oil to prevent cavitation and reduce fade under racing or trackday conditions. For extra peace of mind all units are individually tested and certified before leaving the factory.
The GAZ GOLD kit for BMW E30 1982-91 (incl. M3 model) can be ordered as part number GGA300 at £1,149.40 + carriage & VAT.
Also shown, solid race rear top mounts at £140.00 per pair + carriage & VAT.
