    im going to set the nice and soft.
    I just purchased a set from EVOROBIN for a MK1 golf cab.

    I am happy as, a standard upgrade of shocks and springs will cost you more than that mate !

    Hot Tuning Springs

    Interesting....

    Was there a lead or contact as to where these can be procured? I'm after a cosmetic drop without the stiff ride (and low budget to boot)!

    i've had a fair bit of experience with hottuning coilovers. they're stiff but quite compliant compared to other spring/shock combos i've riden in.

    i think the issue with hottuning is not so much the track weapon but more the low cost cosmetic option. one would think that any serious trackwork would warrant extensively tested and developed suspension systems who's primary advertisement wasn't "120MM DROP!".

    i'm sure you could ship in cup kits from overseas relatively cheaply, but however much i like driving my golf fast, i bought hottuning cause they look MF cool..

    i had hottuning and all i can say is they ok for budjet but shocking handling and dont go very low without being on the bumpstops, if your looking for a 45-50mm drop they are ok, but save up and buy weitech or kw ! I just recieved my weitechs and oh boy the quality is amazing all in for uk £500!

    i tend to agree , unfortunatly with suspension you usually get what you pay for.
