Ok i was already goin to just buy your kit but i was wondering if you had a suggestion on some dampening adjustable coilovers? not looking to spend alot trying to keep it under 1k range including your kit if possible.

the cheapest new kit i can find with dampening adjustment is ksport coilovers.

but i would shop for slightly used on vwvortex, to save money.. and upgrade to h&r or kw for that hopefully.

lowering springs or stock? either way let me know when the time comes, sounds like a good idea.

i have spent $1500 just to hook the machine up, still waiting on my phase convertor so i can turn it on.. it shipped monday.

ordered some of the parts to modify, so first sets will be waiting for the day the machine can turn on..

just need a day to go to a metal stamp and or laser /plasma table shop to have rear mount pieces made, but will probably make my first set free hand with my plasma cutter.
