How'd you round off the edges and actually cut it to size?

KW V3 coilovers on mine.

 

[LONZO]

Excellent, have you tried them on the track?

 

[Al]

Yip

 

[LONZO]

did you feel the improvement in the car, does your laptimes were better or worse?
Please specify which tires are you running...
let me know if the difference is huge between stock an coils. because in my opinion the stock suspension its excellent, but I still want to go with something better, my biggest fear is to go worse...
Any comments?

 

[Al]

Of course KW V3's will be better than standard, and can be adapted to the track you are on. Based on the attitude of people at KW, I would avoid them in future to be honest though and go with Bilsteins which happen to have a lifetime warranty and are more eadily adjusted on the PSS16's.

I use Toyo R888's on the track. I have never measured a laptime at any point to know what difference there might be.

I'm planning going on Bilstein's PSS... because PSS10 are too expensive for now... I've just found a USED PSS10 but I'm not convinced yet. What do you think?
best regards,

I would get the best I could afford in reality. If you dont, and you are after the best, you will always kick yourself you never did. Full and easy adjustability is invaluable if you plan to use the car for both daily driving and track work. That is another KW failing as adjustment is not easy.

 

[LONZO]

I already had PSS in my other car VW Bora (Jetta) 1.8T, and they were awesome. I keep thinking about how many times I would go and change adjustment. Then my other thoughts were that how difficult would be to find the best adjustment for the street and for the track.

What is your opinion about this?

I'm actually lovin the white mirrors on the white car. Seems like the paint isn't a 100% match,, but could be my imagination.
Still looks sweet. It's a bit different from the usual gloss black mod.... (guilty!)
