Just had walk fitted on Monday, the mechanic and i can both hear the brakes catching on full lock. Any idea if the two are related?

Just booked my car in for whiteline kit , 4 wheel alignment and MOT for next wednesday. Is it worth me replacing the subframe bolts with these?

now my car is lowered i can feel the benefit of the BSK, on standard height it felt strange

now steering is much more positive. it actually takes a little getting used to as less steering lock is required to turn.


impressions of the B12 kit are excellent. excellent damping control, comfort as good if not better than OEM in my opinion as the ride is still firm but not crash anymore.

body roll reduced and cornering definitely feels more accurate.


The WALK is a good mod on a standard or modified car but the BSK is only worth doing on a lowered car i have found.

....But aren't these ECS bolts a different spec and much better than VW OEM's?

They look like the ones we just bought in a Group Buy here.
