Choosing my coilovers

[Dory]

I've got a Clio 182 full fat with both cup packs so I'm not sure which coilovers fit, I want Gaz coilovers but they do 2 different sets, a set for CUP and a set for NON CUP which do I need as I don't have a cup but I do have the cup pack??

Thanks
Dory

You need the set for Cup.
Cups and Cup Packed suspension have the same size bolt spacing (60mm)
Which unfortunately greatly reduces your options.

Yeh I noticed I would have very little options with the CUP coilovers but I want Gaz which luckily for me they make a set for the CUP PACK too looking forward to it

spax coilovers , gaz coilovers fail 9 times out of 10.

well maybe not that much , but they do f**k up

Whats wrong with Gaz coilovers? What else can I get that are good for same price? Baring in mind I get discount at Gaz and can get the full set for 450 lol

save up for better.

Avoid Gaz like the plague, they are terrible for the Clio.

 

[Dory]

What's so bad about them? They just too stiff or do they leak? What do people recommend then without spending stupid amounts on suspension baring in mind I have the cup pack so I don't have many choices

 

[Dory]

Only brands I know of that can supply for the cup packed clios are Gaz, v-maxxx and spax, cause I know kw, koni, bilstien, weigtec can't supply for cup

 

[Gray]

They are crashy, they leak, the adjusters seize up...

Bilstein do a set for cup packed cars now IIRC.

 

[Dory]

Where can I get bilstiens for the cup pack?
None on eBay or Ktr?

 

[Gray]

Ok, I've checked and they are still under development.

Look through my threads dude, theres a 182 with cup packs coilovers review thread

Not an awful lot about but theres sooo much better out there than GAZ coilovers.
