Title: New Suspension
Post by: philadams16V on 01 September 2004, 22:54

Hi all.? I've recently bought a 16valver and i'm looking to get some new suspension.? At the moment it just has the standard vw shocks and a previous owner has stuck some 40mm lowering springs on.? It handles like a boat to say the least.? A friend of mine has a 16V raddo on koni and it handles amazing round the bends - practically no body roll and very hard.? I cant afford coilovers so I was wondering what you guys would suggest as a sound upgrade and some prices!
