New suspension on the polo

Finally got the pogo on the track today, And OMG.............Awesome!! So flat through the corners and grip was just amazing!!!

The times the times??!!!!

Didnt get any times as it was a on the side run around there, but I could just feel the corner speed was much much quicker.

were there any issues with installation? any modification that you had to make? im thinking about some of these myself.....

No mods had to be done at all, it was a straight swap, i had the susp shop do the front install and they said it was a easy swap, i heard from the mechanic there that these are made in the same factory as another germany coilover and are made to tuv cert standards

Have you had any issues with the driveshafts hitting the front swaybar???

I know KW sell a set of linkages that move the swaybar up and to the rear of the car to avoid the driveshafts

The car still feels firm but not so firm you lose your mind. It is very comfy in the city with the stops and starts, constant road surface changing and you dont bottom out either on speed humps and etc.

Pics look great. How much did you lower your TDI from stock setup? Im getting a set of these for my match soon and am not quite sure what sort of dropped is recommended to keep it drivable around town ect. Really like hows yours is sitting, makes such a difference.

I can get you measurements tomorrow I wouldnt go too low as when I put my steelies on the car was like a go kart, very low. But with the 17"s it sits nicely.
