Anti lift kits? Talk to me.

[Big Lee M]

I've been looking at them now my cars running good power. I'm running standard suspension at the moment and the car seem to lift at the front a lot now. Has anyone run the kit with standard suspension and do they really work?

I know that lowering the car(I'm going H&R's when I do) would a better idea all round but my drive is steep and I would get the car on it if I did. Plan is to sort the drive in the summer.

Cheers in advance.

I'm in the same boat, looking at getting the powerflex anti lift kit and the front suspension arm bushes as can get both sets for not much more than just the anti lift kit from other brands.

Yeah that's the ones I was looking at, awesome do the power flex one.

I had the Whiteline ALK installed on the Impreza Sti I had and it did help keep the front end down nicely. I did get it fitted alongside having AST coilovers fitted but i know it helped keep the front end from lifting well.

the cupra/k1 has solid bushes anyway but if you do upgrade i will take the oem one off your hands

I'd go superpro bushes guys,deffo on the walk side,there better all round,it was only the rear on my k1 that wasn't superpro'd

Do you mean solid as in firm or solid as in no voids in the bush? As in pretty sure when I was under it the other day the rear bushes on the front wishbones had voids in them, hence the need for the solid bushes?

I'll be parting with mine soon so providing they come out ok I'll be happy to post them

the cupra ones are solid no voids. you should also have alloy wishbones.
like so.

if you have the ones with voids then somebody has been messing. tut tut

 

[AlexK1]

Cheers for the info, I'll have a look. What are they like to remove off the wishbones?

Just been out and checked, it's the same as your photos, so all good. Don't know why I thought there were voided, must have got mixed up with another car I've been on at work!

the cupra has some good parts fitted, i wish the r32 had these fitted.

 

[AlexK1]

I didn't realise they had parts like that, is there anything else special to them I might not know about

If your fitting the ALK, you should look at getting wheel alignment done soon after.

I would recommend the Powerflex Front Wishbone Rear Bushing Anti-Lift & Caster Adjustable and SPULEN Dog bone engine mount kit.
These will take your car handling (when accelerating) to the next level.

 

[Big Lee M]

It's all sounding good to me, I've done the dog bone mount already on mine.
