Keeping the Cupra ...

I've been considering trading the Cupra in for an Audi S3 Quattro basically as I fancied a change after owning the Cupra for nearly three years but after a good detail yesterday I've changed my mind...

Engine is spot on... brakes will be sorted in a week or so and I'm looking at some suspension upgrades next...

I've done most the bushes with the exception of top mounts and engine mounts... the engine mounts can be done whenever but would like the top mounts done soon and whilst I have the suspension out I thought why not put a decent damper / spring kit in...

So I'm after suggestions for replacement dampers / springs...

I'm not too fussed about lowering imho although wouldnt hurt but its important it doesnt ruin the ride which I really like about the Cupra...

So does anyone have any recommendations for a mildly uprated suspension kit for my LC?

Worth noting a rear ARB will be going on very shortly...

koni fsd and eibach pro springs [B)] It'll only drop the car by 10mm or so but will improve the ride and handling. not cheap mind.

Weitec 50/50 Kit:

Best thing ever - rate it soo much over the standard setup and havent got a crashy or harsh setup at all the springs and shocks. I was a bit worried about going so low due to having a child in the car but even the misses has noticed the difference, I have no issues with speed humps & also full car no rubbing at all.

Body roll has been heavily reduced I'm alot more confident in the handling of the car and also added with my front whiteline ARB the car has been transformed!

My honest opinon is it doesnt get much better than this! One very pleased Weitec customer!
