Suspension for the Polo

**PoloGTi** · 11-07-2006, 01:33 AM

Hey all its been a while any way lookig into new suspension for the Polo.
To put it simply it feels slopy compared to my old MK4 Golf which Andrew set up suspension wise with: Koni shock, Eibach springs and a whitline RSB it was wikkid to drive loved the feeling.
Looking at going a step further with the Polo tho due to the fact that once i get my ass into gear and get APR Map ill be running 150kw so need something that gets the power to the ground. I have found 2 options at the moment the KW veriant 3 coilover made by there race dept, or a PSS9 Bilstien coilover both are around the same price. What do you guys think ??? any info at all would be sweet cheers Rob

Hey ok KW v3s are instock at Imotive i think they are around 3k Bilstein Pss9s are around 3.5k and an 8 week wait to get to Aus both are 3 way adjustable its just personal choice really i still have not decided, waiting to see what Harding performance use on there project Polo.

Bilstein are not complete 3 way adjustable . The rebound and compression are adjusted together . KW is adjusted seperate . Also KW is stainless steel where Im pretty sure bilstein is galvanised .

What about strut braces is there anything available for the Polo gti. I saw a Seat front strut brace put on a diesel 9n polo overseas http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?p=1234971not sure how it worked. What about front and rear sway bars????
Sorry PoloGTi if i have hijacked your thread ill make a new one if you like just thought i would keep it all under suspension.
