The car is simply a different animal now.
We got in some quality shop time yesterday with our Golf project—and after six hours, we had completely revitalized the handling of the car. H&R RS coil-overs with Ground Control bolt-in camber plates replaced our MacPherson strut (Ground Control now makes bolt-in camber plates for the Volkswagen that don’t require any cutting or drilling).
The anti-roll bars were were swapped out for Neuspeed units, while the control arms and bushings were from Black Forest Industries.
We set the ride height using H&R’s specified reference points, but we’ll need to fine-tune the final settings.
We topped off the transformation with some reinforcements from Eurosport Accessories and brakes from Powerslot and StopTech.
The car is simply a different animal now. We’re waiting to cornerweight and align it before doing on-track testing, but it looks like this was a straightforward, if not cheap, install.
