*Feeler* suspension swap, my H&R coilovers for gti stand

Post by JKM_GTI »

*Feeler* suspension swap, my H&R coilovers for gti standard set up + cash?

I am returning my car back to standard, so would anyone be up for a suspension swap + cash my way.

I have H&R coilovers, which have covered around 10k miles.

If you’re interested please reply here.

Only catch is, we would need to have meet up to have both cars suspension swapped over.

Cheers,
Joe

I assume the H&R's are damping adjustable? From what I have heard in general the ride can be quiet harsh on H&R coils. What setting do you have the shocks on and how would you describe the ride comfort compared to standard.

Would you be willing to swap the c/coded splitter for a std one + cash? I assume it is reflex silver rather than satin? If so, what condition is it in, any stone chips etc?

Regards,

Marc.

If you don't manage the swap mate, I have my old standard GTi suspension lying in my garage, since i got coilovers a couple of months back.

Mk4 glx – I don’t think the coilovers have adjustable dampening (I may be wrong mind). The ride is a fair bit harder then standard, but there is no body roll at all! Plus however uncomfortable is it, as soon as you get out the car & see the decked stance you’ll forgive it!

Ant 43 – How much do you want for the standard suspension? Does it have top mounts fitted as I might have a bash at fitting them myself?

All pm’s have been replied to.

Thanks,
Joe

Hello

Not sure how much to ask for JKM_GTI! How much are you prepared to pay?

By top mounts, do you mean the kindof cup thingamyjigs that plop on top of the suspension inside the engine bay? If so, i think i do, but i'll have to check.
