MAT ED30:
I got both rear wheels in the air yesterday LOL

iainalpine:
the tuner i spoke to was star performance in fife, scotland. i went there to get the mk4 done and it was great so thought i would go back.
does the extra weight involved with the DSG change what you can fit?
im starting to think along the same lines as yourself RedRobin. has he got v3's in stock that he wants to get rid off!
always took the guy to be pretty straight with people.
the suspension for me has got to be doing the job. like yourself RedRobin im driving on twisty stuff as much as i can and living where i do in scotland there is plenty to choose from. im defo not after the slammed look. infact if it stays at the same height im happy with that. :happy2:

....The DSG weight makes no difference whatsoever in your choice of suspension. Star Performance aren't doing themselves any favours by telling you cr@p like that. They'll be telling you that 5-door GTI's need bigger brakes next!

MAT ED30:
As has been said above the V3 are only good if they have been setup correct as when mine were put they were all over the place and had not been setup at all as it was just not handling correct and after a setup from vwr the car is fantastic in the corners but i do feel every thing in the road and mine are not as stiff as they can go at all  :grin: but the car just feels planted in the corners and even the wife has said how much better the car is after the setup by VWR. If u want my advice you can spend ££££ on suspension but if its not been setup for the car and with u in it then what is the point  :confused: of spending all that ££££  :smiley:

iainalpine:
Good morning guys. I have thought long and hard about what to do with regards the suspension and have decided to go with the KWv3's and whiteline kit. If i put on the v1 or v2 i no i would always want the v3 so time to bite the bullet. will be on around the start of may me thinks.
thanks again for all your input and thoughts. will let you no how im getting on with them.

cheers

Iain
