Your suspension mods

[SoVeReIgN]

Hey guys with mk4s -
Looking at abit of a suspension upgrade, I've purchased a H&R Cup kit (thanks fkindubbin) and will be purchasing 22mm Adjustable front and rear whiteline swaybars. (Rear set stiffer than front )

Now - My question is - What have you guys done for strut braces?
Front and rear or what? What sizes and what effect has the mod had on the car ?

Cheers,
Dave

me- h&r coilovers with h&r sway bars front and rear

handling now- not like the tubby boat it used to be!

Ah i'm sort of curious about anyones suspension setup

Did you do it all at once or did you do it progressively? (ie - did the sway bars make much difference after hte coilovers?)

[gpk_gti]

no I did it all together because of the drop coilovers give ,if you dont change the sway bar the drive shaft rubs on it.The H&R sway bar has the special extra curve to allow for the extra drop.

its no longer the same car with the new suspension.it makes a HUGE difference.
