Title: Suspension Mods...what works?????
Post by: kenji on 22 February 2007, 23:05
Hi Guys,

I'm a bit new to Golfs...so stay with me if you can, please...though, I do know about susses, n' engines, n' stuff !!

My newly aquired Mk3 gti 8v [which I'm sooooo happy with, n' I've said it before!], but...

You Mk3 gti guys out there......you know how the standard suspension seems to 'bobble' around on less-than-flat top going....like it's a bit weak on rebound damping? LIke it can drive you a bit crazy on 'B' roads...though it seems to stiffen up on corners...so chucking into corners is no probs?

Well, my question is; if I'm a bit disatisfied with the standard susses' habits in 'bobbling' around on the bumps, does a decent suspension kit, like Koni, REALLY sort out the ride....or not?


I mean DO THEY REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE to the ride, n' worth the cost???

I dunno' cos I've never been there...you guy's have fitted the sus mods....what do you really think? Have they improved things?


KR,

Ken.
