    Have you looked at the wishbone bushes, the rear ones in particular. They fall apart all the time. These cars handle pretty good from the factory and it would take a pretty special driver to make determinations about the handling, IMHO and I have an S3 which is the same underneath.

    It would be very sensible to get all the standard suspension back to as new condition, before blowing hard earned on modifications and not getting the full benefit from them.

    These H2Sport spindles might be worth looking into. I'm pretty much decided I'll get a pair when I get coilovers.
