    I hated how the standard spings rode. I much prefer my Kmacs now even tho I do feel the bumps. It now looks much more like a sports car then a small 4x4.

    I would sell my KMAC's for $350 to anyone interested.

    That would allow me to buy coilovers.
    Current - MY12 MK6 GTI, CW, Detriots, dark tint, APR Stage 1, blacked out grille, LED tails, Euro plates, suspension "tweaked", VCDS tweaks
    "The Ex" Black MY08 POLO GTI - APR,Coilovers,5% tint,stubby antenna, rear sway bar

    Has anyone got KW springs on their GTI? Any opinions on them generally or otherwise?

    I found the dealer for them is just down the road from my work in Brisbane. So they look to be the pick for now.

    Got a pic of how your GTI sits with the KMAC's?

    Ive got eibach pro kit on mine and it made a dramatic difference to the car and really rounds it out nicely.

    Sits nicely, looks much better, handles bumps better and gets the power down nicely. Much less pitching and jiggling than stock which is what i hated. The stock shocks didnt seem to damp anything and bounced all over the place

    Very happy with the upgrade

    Just so you know, if you talk to the right people, you can get them brand new for $250

    If you go to AllSprings in Moorebank, you can get them for the same price and you can specify exact specs inc spring rate, EXACT hub to fender measurements etc... unlike KMAC.

    Goodluck

    Sorry, Bboy ... are you talking about Eibach Pro Kit for $250? ... If so ... I'm IN.

    volkspower in burwood. Dean did the hunting for me. Ended up going to slotted rotors, service, eibachs and alignment in the one hit.
