is this suspension rebuild worth it? -

apex12 · 05-24-2008, 07:59 PM

lately ive been looking at the "Suspension Rebuild Kit with Adjustable End Links (Heavy Duty)" from MJM autohaus but im not sure if it would be worth the money. I have some eibach springs on my 04 gti already but I want some more handling while spending the last amount of money possible. So is this rebuild kit worth it?

I don't think rebuild kit would increase handling at all. Your car is fairly new, so I don't really think you need much. Are Eibachs your only mod? If you want more handling definitely look into rear sway-bar. I would get Neuspeed one. If you're on stock shocks, aftermarket ones like Bilstein Sports or Koni Yellows would increase handling tremendously also.

your car is too new and unless ur gonan constaly adjust your suspension for race track use, save your money. invest it in a better differential and you'll get loads of handeling.
