Suspension

[davegilsenan]

Hello all. My 130 TDI is a bit soggy on the road so i wanted to sort out the suspension. I was going to fit Eibach pro-line springs which will be a bit stiffer and lower by 30mm. Would standard dampers suit this set up? Any other suggestions for dampers?
Thanks

What kind of drop were you looking for?

I had a 130bhp highline. I wanted a drop, better ride, but didn't want to feel every little thing on the road.

I went for Koni Frequency Suspension (which change the dampner automatically to the road). Mine costed me last year about £250, and the springs i got were eibach (£89).

One thing i must point out is that the max you can lower the car on these struts are 30 or 35mm for the dampner adjustments to work.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED as it held the road a LOT better and the ride i can honestly say, was better than the original factory ones.

(IF lowering, replace the top mounts (quite cheap on gsf car parts)
