Koni coilovers

I now have a set of fully adjustable Koni Coilovers in my S3. These are currently retailing in UK for £950, which would probably be around $1M retail in Oz!!

Purchased them secondhand of an Ozaudi member.

Had it installed by a suspension shop for $350 incl wheel alignment.

Its been dropped about 45mm all round and sits with a 10mm gap to the tyres.

The rebound settings are very firm and i can feel all the undulations and irregularities in the road surface, but its still rides a lot better over the bigger bumps - the OEM suspension really crashed hard over the same bumps.

Of course, it look 1000% better as well!

Next on my shopping list, a set of 18" rims

I had a set of these on my mkv. Even with them set very low and quite stiff they were extremely comfortable compared to other coilover setups ive seen. Nice compromise for a daily driver really.
