O no, another suspension thread!?

Hey! No I don't wanna know if cheap coilovers are any good lol. I've been looking into gettin a set of springs and shocks to set up my 16v right. So can you lot recommend me a good spring shock setup that will improve the handling a lot without braking my back or bank? Also would like a 40/40 or 60/40 drop.

And yes I know how to search 

Cheers

Get a good quality set of shocks, Boge or Sachs then a set of springs, will make a world of difference I would also replace all the top mounts at the same time.

Cheers, Wayne. What springs would you recommend? I'd change the top mounts

[boneybradley]

eibach or kw springs for best comfort but you'll only get 40/40mm max lowering, I agree with the boge/sachs shocks. you can use lowering spring caps for 10mm front lowering (I'm sure venom do them)

I have some brand new FK lowering spring caps if you want them, for the later, smaller pigtail springs.

On my last car, a leon cupra r i fitted a weitec kit and would definitely have them again, perfectly smooth on the motorway, minor roll in the twisties and comfortable for a lowered car round town on bumpy roads. On the car 3-4 years and now with the new owner and never gave me an issue

Yep Weitec Hi-Con GT is what I have fitted- no complaints from me, was recommended them from the local rally specialist. Only major modification I have ever done to any of my cars.

I have Weitec Ultra GT shortened struts with Eibach sportline springs and the ride and handling is a fairly balanced  compromise.
