Correct me if I'm wrong but apparently Camira shockies fit in Gemini's. They are shorter and bolt straight in. Does anyone know if this is true?

just my opinion. same as ozy tyres.
any company all over the show scene will never give you the right price.
oh and i know this has nothing to do with the original topic.

Of course there are things as shortened shocks.. run them in the race car....If you run Koni or Bilstiens then take them back and have them cut. But I dont know of any "off the shelf" short shocks for a gemini. You might find that some other shock might fit. But try and keep it from a car of simular size and weight other wise it will be over shocked and handle like a pig... Michael
