It all depends upon your budget mate. You can get a cheap set of FK's or alike or go for the big bucks with a set of KONI's. Its up to you.

Is the suspension needed to cope with the added wait of the engine? I already have uprated shocks and Ei Bach 40mm springs?

I would of said yes as you will need stiffer springs.

can't see why, none of the mk3s came with coilovers as standard, just make sure that the shocks and springs are all ok.

you don't need coilovers but you do need extra poundage springs as the vr is alot heavier than the standard mk2 engine.
team grumpy....... its a way of life, not a forum post
