Coilovers.

[jgribben]

My friend has non adjustable joms coilovers and the ride quality was better than my BC coilovers when the dampening was set at 8 from soft. He's sitting at about a 40-50mm drop. They're 5 years old and still going strong

Ha they are the cheapest of the cheap. But funnily I've heard good things too. Just don't thrash it over bumps or take it on the track and you'll be fine.

I'm not sure how reviews on other cars relate to the Polo. The early AP's were hard, I had them as my first coilovers and glad I went to the KW's.

Bang for buck, if you want low, I'd go the Weitec. Lots of happy Polo'ers with Weitec, good price, generally last. Some random brand that works well on some Jap car is a bad route IMO, the Polo has a narrow wheel-base and if you go too stiff, you're going to know it.

You may have better luck finding info in the mkIV or mkIII golf sections. I don't recall many members going down th more budget oriented route. The mkIV or mkIII guys seem to come across lesser known brands so may have other options beyond what's known in the polo section - doesn't mean any of it will fit the polo though.

[QUOTE=Bayan37;1098011]Thanks for all the help guys really appreciated. I do have a friend that can get me Bilstein's install for $1300 but was just seeing if there were any cheaper options that were reasonable say under the 1k mark? That will be able to handle reasonably and looks good don't want to go too low. So if anyone knows any other options that would be great!

Also how much did you want for your Weitec Hicon GT VW Polo 9N GTI PN 13280039???? whats your price range?

Hi Bayan37, $900 ono (plus postage to your location) , Cheers Al

I am interested in your coilovers brother but don't have the money at the moment as I just did a APR stage1 so I would have to wait a bit till I can afford your coilovers. If you don't sell them anytime soon let me know cause I am interested

Thanks

Ok cool cool. Is there anywhere that you can purchase JOM or Fk's in Sydney or aus online?

[rgvlee]

lol, after all of this you're still considering the cheap stuff i.e., fk

Based on what has been said here and in other threads in this section there is no way I'd consider getting fks.

I think this may be one of those things that you get what you pay for.
