Has anybody fitted H&R/Eibachs springs to the New Cupra??

[Igor23]

As the title suggests, has anybody on here lowered their NEW Cupra yet, if so what springs/shocks have you used, and do you have any pix??

i assume u used Eibach SportKit right? what's the difference in ride quality?

 

[DanGB]

djhorace put eibach prokits on his.

 

[Al]

Now Sportlines

 

[Revon]

Koni FSD's and Eibach Pro Kit here. Big improvement in ride / handling but not much lower. Coilovers could be on the cards...

thanks for info guys...
@djhorace - is the ride more hard on Sportlines than stock cupra springs?
@Revon - couldn't find ProKit for cupra in Eibach catalogue... can you advise about p/n? I like Koni/Eibach combo

I am also from Belgrade and I drive Leon Cupra too! Ride is better with Eibach springs, but the coilovers are the way to go... Pozdrav!

@Revon - tks man
@Milan - MASS Company? I buy oil from you for last 7 years... hoping to do that in future but guys from Porsche service don't like me bringing 300V (they threaten me with warranty loss) :-( unfortuneatly didn't have luck with Eiback for my Alfa and Opel last time... hope that I'll have better luck with Seat

Yes, Mass Company... I have bought my car from Porsche too, but I will do my oil changes at another place, they have only one good mehanic in there, others are You can bring your own oil with you, but it must have the proper VW norm for this engine, because of the warranty, but you dont want to use that oil... I use 300V also in all my cars... Next time find me when you come to us... Maybe I can arrange that you can take your own oil to Porsche, contact me next time!

i'm getting KW v1 coilovers fitted along with eibach anti-roll bars this tuesday. will let you know how they get on soon

 

[Al]

Pretty weird really but the pro kits are harder than the stock springs with just a small drop, but the sportlines are softer despite lowering the car more. Side to side, the pro kits and sportlines look almost the same, so I guess the main difference iis if you want a lower car with a slightly softer ride get the Sportlines (stance is much nicer with sportlines), or if you want it marginally lower than stock (10-15mm) and a bit stiffer, get the pro kit.

 

[NickP]

Pro Kit is the way forward

 

[Al]

Pro Kit is the way forward

thanks guys, i think that Sportline is smiling at me
@djhorace - i thought you drive Cupra... or is this 1.6 just a decoy or something?

 

[Al]

I have both

The 1.6 is being used at the moment. I change my signature all the time
