Title: Handling mods
Post by: beppe2672 on 02 December 2013, 19:54

After a couple of brown trouser moments I've decided to focus more on the handling aspects of my mk4 gti instead of just making it go faster. Ive already got a tt quickrack fitted, I've just ordered a set of bilstien b8 shocks, eibach springs and eibach front and rear anti roll bars. Anything else I can add that genuinely helps the thing corner better without making the ride too harsh?

strut braces?

middle braces(never really used them or been in a car with one fitted so wouldn't know how much of a difference it makes?)

uni brace?

things like carbon roof to keep the weight and centre of gravity low?


as said the only ones iv ever had any dealings with are strut brace, uni brace. both seemed ok if you can pick one up for cheep

P zeros in my opinion are utter wank IMO mine barely lasted 6 mths and there would of been more grip on my fecking sandals!
