I got a SPAX PSX kit on my golf - only damper adjustable but suits my needs ... can't fault the kit and you know as it's a complete kit the springs are well matched to the dampers, helps guard against a harsh ride you'll often get with 'mix'n'match' suspension setups.

Try www.motorsportsworld.co.uk - got loadsa Golf stuff and the SPAX kit is dirt cheap ! only a fraction over ?300 !!

I suppose the first thing u have to ask is how much can I spend, and what do I want to get out of it .....

at the mo im running stock springs and raceland shocks on my 16v, along with Eibach ARB's

the ARB's alone make one hell of a difference, and tomorrow its going to get a set of Eibach springs fitted also ;D

i also bought the bilstien kit from euro car parts.
the handling is sh!t hot but it is a little rough ride
a definate thumbs up for a cheap complete kit.
