GAB = KYB with a different paint job. The equivalent KYB for your model ought to have the same damping rates.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

I'm here - I didn't stop answering them - I believe some of my emails haven't gotten 'out' to people. Still no luck. I don't believe there will be any. What I mentioned in the last email was for you to measure the components you need, and I'll see if Daiyama can supply something (Daiyama supplies KYB who supply GAB).

And about those emails, I'll chase that up promptly!

that poses a bit of a problem, Mechanic still has car and strut is still in, it was hard enough to get the numbers i supplied you originally. Is there anything else that will fit a S/S Ae111 Levin? I may have to get a matching pair?

Hey - try emailing me again - mac@fortyone.co.nz.

I'm just pulling blanks with both KYB and GAB. GAB have nothing to offer currently - information or parts wise, and KYB can't match the part number for me.

I'm speaking with Rex at Daiyama to see if there's any blood to come from that stone. I'll email a response when he gets back to me (should be today) so I hope we can get your car moving again =]

(P.S: For those a little confused, we didn't sell him the problematic set of GAB's. However we're doing all we can to help regardless!)
