I just found out this thread! :happy2:

Very nice car the Bruce!! The way I like them, a discreet clean OEM look from outside and a lot of performance mod's inside.

Can you tell us more about the Sachs coilover?
Do you have any idea of what it worth compare to Bilstein PSS10?

VC:
....money shot



:congrats:

Hello Laurent !!

Thank you.  :wink: Well, your A3 is still the example.  :drinking:

Construction is like Bilstein B16:
single tube, upside down, gas pressure, dampers comb. adjustable (but 20 clicks)

I really like it.  :wink:
Performs very well on Nordschleife. Ok, on very poor roads I wish a softer suspension.
At slalom (like Auto-X) I'd like to have it even harder. But it seems to be best of both worlds.


@ Cherry:

the fotos by the hangar were taken by a friend - a professional photographer

They look suspiciously like Bilstein PSS10...
May be like H&R Coilover they use Bilstein internal. Or Bilstein use Sachs ones...

Do you have linear or progressive springs?

I'm planning to replace progressive springs of my Bilstein by linear ones and to rebuild the damper inside in order to improve right and left balance.
Bilstein building tolerence between dampers is 15% Öhlins is about 5% the workshop I use to go can build them at 3%.
