Hey all,
Does anyone know where I'd be able to obtain some coilovers for my L512 Mira? Been quoted £560 for a set from Malaysia and wondered what everyone else is running? They're from a company called HWL and are apparently the best around for a Mira. Are there any alternatives?
That's the HWL ones.
Thanks all.

The rears don't look like coilovers, what's the ride height for the rear springs?
I spoke to GAZ about getting some custom ones made and the estimated £500-£600 if I supply them with standard suspension to copy.

they dont sell a coil over for the rear, its a uprated shock and lowering springs, work really well and help with the shocking handling of the mira's,

Apparently they lower the car something like 35-40mm I think. I might just go for them to be fair since they're supposed to be pretty good and are what a lot of people are running in Malaysia.

Been a while since I've logged on - I got my GAZ coilovers made (using my standard shocks as templates) for less than what you've been quoted from Malaysia.
GAZ are a great company to deal with, very knowledgeable and UK based.
I'd say they're the next best option to a set of challenge car Bilsteins if you can find some!
I've had no issues over the two years I've had them fitted.

Oh boy, wish I'd have known this sooner, haha!
Also, are those 4x110 Compomotives you're running?

So how much did Gaz charge you to make them up if you don't mind me asking?
As coilovers are the next thing i want to do to my Mira

They were around £500, but you'd be better off giving them a call (01268 724585) as it was a couple of years ago and I went there with my car as I live local to them.
Mark - yep they're 4x110 TH's.

Thought they looked familiar
Quite interested in the M05's myself. I guess they machine the centre bore and PCD to suit? Also, what sort of price were they, if you don't mind me asking?
