Ask for model numbers to check them out , but be aware that you would want to put them in to get revalved as you wouldnt know the condition , so dont pay to much , but if you pick them up for cheap they would be a great buy 8)

yeah thats what i was thinking, i cant get back on trademe til 12 at work so i will get the model numbers and google them or something.
how much you reckon for re-valving them?

these would go into a gt caldina not gtt im assuming the suspensions are interchangeable?

i brought some coilovers off trademe for mine and the started leaking in less than a month , put me off buying second hand coilovers but if u get them cheap enought could be rebuilt for around $450 and as far as im aware the st210 and 215 have the same suspension

ST210 & ST215 have different suspension. ST210 is FWD, ST215 is 4WD, so, while it may fit, it may not be suitable for the GT-T.

All ST215GTs & manual GTTs have the same shocks and springs. The only variation is the Auto GTT has a different front spring, probably a higher rate to allow for the extra weight of the auto trans.
