Will be at the track this Sunday. Will update you all on how I feel Bilstein/Eibach's go.
As long as the parts are in, it will be next week.

Will be at the track this Sunday. Will update you all on how I feel Bilstein/Eibach's go.
What do you think of the setup so far Pog?
hey all,
I recently purchased and installed the H&R cup kit and cupra r bushes. The kit consists of the H&R springs which many people on this forum are running + the matching H&R dampers to match (I read somewhere they were made by bilstein could be wrong)
It's a HUGE improvement over stock, the car sits much much flatter through corners and doesn't have too much of a stiff ride over bumps compared to stock. I find that I can now push the car much harder familiar corners without the fear of washing out into understeer where I would previously. Weight transfer is also less pronounced so the car feels a lot snappier changing directions and gives me the nice dumped look to boot...![]()
My car is getting done this Friday, bout time farkn![]()

So I got my car back on Sat morningTo start with I could feel a lot of weight in the rear and thought it very strange, at my next stop I checked the boot and the'd put the old shocks and springs in the boot. Once I got home and removed the old ones from the boot, the car is brilliant. I can feel a bit of stiffness but not so much that the ride is harsh.
I walked past it and thought hey wow that is pretty low, think it's been dropped bout 3-4cm. So far pretty happy with itWas trying to plan a run up and down Macq Pass but have missed out. 5 days and I'm off to Thailand for 10 days, so will love getting back in the car when I return

Good to hear you're happy with it... back to the track then eh?![]()
It's actually weird driving a car that absorbs the bumps, especially just regular rises and dips in a smooth road.
As for the track, we'll see. Wouldn't mind doing some motorkhana's.
