where can I get decent suspension for my Polo?

[GoLfMan]

Does anyone know any decent, reasonably priced place to get some nice suspension for my Polo... It must have a 60mm drop or more... springs 1st then heavey duty shox.
any information would be great thanks !
Please no UBER expensive things... im a uni student.

There is Toper Performance in Vermont Trade Place just near Ethridge on Canturbry Rd... Also the place owned by Chris Musgett he sets up circuit racing cars i cant remeber the name but i'll tell you soon...

[GoLfMan]

yeh Bill M put me onto them...
But i simply dont have $1400 for the shox alone unless he has cheeper ulternatives to Koni

[Water Boy]

The other place i was thinking of is Centerline Suspension... Toper Performance should be able to work some thing out give both of them a ring i know they are very happy to talk and give advice and cut deals

I dont reckon you can go 60mm unless you never drive on Aussie Roads.
40mm is more sensible and lots more kits out there.

[Timbo]

Yeah...I was going to say...60mm is madness The car will ride and handle like ****e

Depends on what your aim is.....I guess if you just want to dump the poor little pog on its arse ...

[GoLfMan]

yeh 40mm might be more achievable, thanks for the feedback fellas.
water do know have the numbers for these places? cheers!

Those look interesting...but I'd urge a little caution, as the spring rate quoted -- FRONT SPRING RATE: 7.0 kg/mm -- REAR SPRING RATE: 5.3 kg/mm -- (that's around 400 & 300 lb/in respectively) seems fairly ...er...actually, very stiff! I had a look on clubpolo.co.uk, and one of the guys there suggests the standard Polo (not GTI) is 225 & 180. If that's the case, then on typical Australian roads she'll jump around like a frog in a sock

Edit: I'll just temper what I said, having seen, GolfMan, that your Pog is a TDI, and therefore a little heavier at the front end

[Golf Loon]

Surely as they are adjustable, the spring rates will change too.

I think also the picture is just a file pic and not of the actual set you will get.

[Timbo]

The springs may be progressive, ie, each coil may compress slightly differently, but the overall rate is fixed. The adjustment will be in the dampers
