I think I read somewhere R32 shocks/springs are about 25mm lower than the standard set up...maybe worth it?

I'v seen complete R32 suspension set ups selling for about £200...

Having run both the Eibach and Weitec springs on my mk3 I would recommend the Eibachs. The Weitecs handled very well and had slightly less body roll but were a touch stiff for my personal needs on a daily basis hence the change to the Eibach Sportlines.
