    Cupra coilover adjustment

    Hi all,

    I checked the coilovers on the weekend after a week of driving & decided to lower her some more.

    the front is another 2cm lower & the rear another 1cm.
    I'm very happy with the way it looks & drives.





    cheers

    Nice, it looks really good!

    Is the ride harsh at all?

    At the first height setting it was like a go kart at slow speeds, at 40-60K you could feel every bit of the road surface & my wife refused to ride in it after a 20 min drive!

    I decided to drop it a bit more as I said above & the ride comfort is a little firmer than the standard gti ride but the handling is unbelievable, it has transformed the car.

    Go and find an old set of Mk1 drums and get them turned into spacers
