Coilover kits
« on: 11 July 2011, 15:30 »
I'm just wondering would a coilover conversion kit fit over the standard Gti shocks?

I guess you mean them funny ebay special height adjustable springs? If so why why why why why?

you can get proper coilover (bargain basement) kits for £150ish and the ride will be much better than them conversion spring things! (although rear passat coilovers have height adjusting springs with a separate shocker! but that's the car design)
