Advance Coilovers

[team_v]

There is an ECSTuning group buy being arranged at the moment.
ECStuning do Blistein and FK coilovers which are quality equipment.
Adjustable height and dampening to allow you the "look" but also allow comfort and drivability when you need it.

Might want to look into that.

Interesting to see what they have out there that we don't even get.

Trying to find the H&R Coilovers but they aren't on the ECS site.
Seems it's Blistein or FK automotive only from them, although they should be able to get some in before the group buy is finished if you email them.

The passat sedan H&R products are here:

I've had lowered springs and coilovers in a couple of my cars and can honestly say I'd go coilovers everytime. Even the cheap and cheerful coilovers dont ride too bad (nothing compared to KW's but still better than springs!) and you have the freedom to adjust the height as you please.

Been there with springs NOT being happy with the height and the ride quality, it frustrated me. Do yourself a favour, get the coilovers, and slam it as much or as little as you want!

joel, i'm all for cheap coilovers.

if you just want to dump the **** out of the ca, it's cheap and it'll actually be more comfortable than if you cut your springs in half...

whilst i don't doubt the value of a good set of shocks and springs, the boy wants to lower it... WHY WONT YOU LET HIM LIVE?!!

[Joel]

rocket i realise im going to lose a shipload of practicality, but at least it'll be noticeably lower

and yes it may not be handle great or be very comforable, but being a turbo diesel passat its not exactly 'sporty' in the fist place

so i think ill go this route and slammmmmm it like theres no tommorow

Why not go all out and get Airbags and Bentley/Lambo wheels.
That would look sick as.

ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh, tempting

[team_v]

Slow, low and sooty.
Sounds likea great idea to me.

At least Wabit won't be lonely in the bagged passat club.
