thinking of putting these on STi 5.

Whats the general view of these as I understand there has been a couple of failures.

Cheers

Thumbs down

Take care. I fitted my V3 with AVO's. No fitting instructions, and no brackets for the brake hoses. Black paint flaked off when I did the strut/hub bolts up, so they are now rusty. NS rear clatters while the others are quiet.
They are easy to adjust and they do take 2 1/4'' springs from Demon Tweeks so that is good, but not much else. Pay more and get DMS or better still LEDA's. buy quality once....

Recently fitted them to my STi2 RA. Great improvement over standard, but they do tend to be a bit noisy and the lack of instructions is a pain in the ****

Gaz shocks are about £700 all in from zenith motorsport, they are plated and have a full waranty, instructions etc. They looked at what AVO did...and decided to make a better product for less money.
The waranty covers tracday use etc. Give tony at Zenith a ring on 01792464666
