Having decided that I really need to get the last major faults on my golf sorted (steering and suspension) I'm looking at the Streetline kit.
The blurb on eurocar parts says:
"Each kit contains: 4 x Bilstein 'Original' gas shock absorbers plus 1 x lowered and uprated spring kit."
What I wanted to check is, is the 1x lowered and uprated spring kit mean 4 springs? (doesn't make much sense to include 4 shocks and 2 springs, but as most springs are sold in pairs, I just wanted to double check).
Thanks in advance.

Got the streetline kit from ECP on mine but in mk1 guise, it is indeed 4 bilstein shocks and you do get 4 springs made by Ventura, not a well known make but apparently Ventura also make springs for other more expensive brands :shocked: If you are buying the streetline kit make sure you go through Stuart at the Leeds branch of ECP as he will give you 10% discount for using this site. If you need to know anything else about the kit let us know. :smiley:

I fitted a sprintline kit on mine as I thought while I was about it I might as well upgrade it with gas shocks .The price difference wasn't too bad. I couldn't quite run to coilovers but in hind sight maybe I should have .( Mind you the sprintline kit is a great improvement... not bad for trackdays) :smiley:
