Got my H&R coilovers thanx to the ATO finally for my Audi ( i know its got nothing to do with VW's ) but Shazza's getting a new engine thanx to Mr Costello
I cant beleive what a difference its made theres no understeer or body roll and off the mark there appears to be even more traction woo hoo
I decided to test it so i found this bend with a sign that said 55 with a truck tipping anyways at the time i was doing 80 down shifted to 2nd hit 110 around the bend and the adrenalin was pumping as this is the fastest i have ever been around a bend this calabre! Made it no probs!
Car looks hot and it gets more looks than before as the back is slammed unlike before so now the car has a flat appearance much like it handles.
Its suprising that its kept most of ride quality like when it was lowered with the 50mm springs (20% stiffer) the ride stayed nice and comfy now i reckon these could be maybe 35% stiffer than stock which is barely noticible so Im laughing. Now my Fiance has got used to the straightline speed need to get her used to the twisty speed i have now 🙂
Best way to describe is that when u hit a bend u go round like its on rails and shoots ya like ur on a roller coaster 8)
heres some pics 🙂
and heres me posing on the harbour bridge
H&R make coilovers for beetles too but only type 3's with IRS if anyone wants a mad handling bug i recommend this coilover kit:thumb
