« on: May 08, 2008, 04:13:38 AM »
i want to get some coilovers for the audi.

2001 b5 1.8t quattro.

nuno is pushing the KW VR2 but i was hoping to spend a little less.

basically its a daily driver that gets some spirited driving but more so its my "nice" car. i ride the r6 more then anything.

that being said. info. comments. suggestions. rants. prices. let me know.

The cheaper you get on coil overs the quicker the "daily Driver" is taken out of the equation.

You want comfortable adjustable quality coilover..buy the KW2's

I like my Koni's.



Unless I'm adjusting the ride height or compression/rebound; then I really fucking hate them.

I've ordered El Cheapo from Germany:  450 Dollars.



Made in Holland apparently...  Max 120mm drop (wouldn't like to try it though!)

I had H&R on my last two cars and really liked them...  This Audi is meant to be a money saver, so that's the reason I've cheaped out this time.
