Ro1992hs Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Hi guys and girls, I've recently bought a completely stock lupo gti so you can imagine I have a to do list... lol. First things first, it needs to be lower. As I'm new to the car scene I'm kind of clueless about what suspension to go for. I don't want to slam it as I live in Kirklees and the roads are horrendous, it just needs to o be a little lower, maybe an inch or so. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks Edited June 13, 2017 by Ro1992hs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 Just leave it standard. You'll thank me later. Unless it's a jap import, then put it on jom's.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro1992hs Posted June 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 There's no way I can leave it man! It's riding so high, with loads of body roll. Even my mums standard Audi A3 is lower ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Loop Posted June 13, 2017 Report Share Posted June 13, 2017 I went for KW V1's last year and can't fault them really. Whatever you do, be sure to buy a good kit (springs and dampers) before wasting money on cheap (and bad quality) coilovers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLAYTONJONES Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I ran AP coilovers for 3 years, not bad for the money but a bit harsh on our roads. Recently changed to BC's, I run these on the softest damping setting and what a differenfe compared to the AP's! The ride and handling has improved massively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro1992hs Posted June 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 £300 at the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian@DPM Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 The only option would be lowering springs or one of the budget coilover kits really. Damian @ DPM Performance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
