Ways of reducing the weight of our cars
the bruce:
Yes, but even these "ultimate" Clubsport coilovers usually come with spring rates
of say 70 N/mm to 100 N/mm. If you increase this by 7.X % it's still negligible. :wink:
True racing suspensions for a car of the weight of a GTI start at 200 N/mm and above.
I know a guy running 160 N/mm both on street and when autocrossing.
:drinking:

I will find out next week.
Going to be miles better than the KW offerings. Better company to deal with too.

Sy, Bilstein use the same kits for the mk5 and the vRS. KW don't though.

As far as I remember (when looking at B16 codes), Bilstein has the same suspension for GTI, vRS and my 1.4 TSI also...

So Bilstein have gone for a one size fits all. Cheaper to develop that way i guess.
