They're okay, they do the job they're supposed to but they are budget items. Wouldn't recommend them for a track toy but on a daily they'll be fine, and if they break.. you can buy another set and still have spent less than an FK or Weitec kit :grin:

Check the discounts section at the bottom of the forum though, Edwin is one of our forum sponsors and sells the coilies to us for a bit cheaper :wink:

Car = 3k
Mods = 10k (including labour)

Total = £13k FWD car with 300bhp and is useless in anything but dry weather

or

http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/840533.htm

Will piss over a 300bhp golf in every area (and any other 300bhp hatchback) and you will have change for a holiday!

ah yes you're one trick solution to everything

so tell me - why did you mod your CTR???

I lightly modded my ctr, i didnt spend in excess of £10k on a fwd hatchback as its just stupid! Anyone that does it has more money than sense!  I sold it because it was a nippy hatchback and was pointless to mod it further.
I bought

exhaust - £550
ECU - £800
Induction - £380

I sold them at the exact price i paid when i sold the car, as i want something that is faster standard and a better car! I dont personally have the need for 300bhp+ or i would buy an evo or M3 so the R32 fits me perfectly with 4wd and 250bhp.


what if the person likes the look of the golf and not something like a subaru or evo, and 10k is not necessarily the end figure, some mods wont be done in favour of others etc.

You could buy and turbo an  MK4 R32 for close to the money he will spend!

i dont really see  your point, if HE wants to spend HIS money on HIS car its up to HIM? YES? whats the point in modding a car at all if you go down your route? you will never see the cash again. thats not the point is it? its a hobby at the end of the day. If you dont want to mod, dont, if you do, then crack on  :wink:
