Suspension help

[CupraJay]

I am looking for new suspension for my 03 leon cupra. Iv been looking at a few products...and wanted some feedback.

Especialy on koni FSD shocks ect. Article says they are a perfect compromise between ride comfort and road holding. Is it true. My last car..bmw mini had coilovers on..handled superbly, but was way to stiff and became very anoying.

I want the car to stay comfortable. But also handle well. Any reviews on these?

not on konis though ive heard they will be similar to fk's (same factory?) ive a sset of highsport coilovers on and cant complain, rebound is faster and still sits on the uneven roads fine.

Yermother has just had some of the FSDs fitted on his LCR.

There are a couple of suspension threads knocking around at the moment that may be of help.

Iv read a few suspension threads..But didnt find anything on the FSD's which seemed most interesting to me.

It might be worth getting in touch with Yermother for his opinion. I've been looking at them to as from what I can tell they're a balance between sportyness and comfort at a decent price.

I have got the Eibach Pro street S coilovers fitted to my cupra , handling has improved a great deal and if anything the car is actually more comfy !!

Hi just got this email from Beverley at Leda


For the fronts:
2 x front struts, coilover type @ £270
2 x Eibach coil springs @ £50.52 each

For the rears:
2 x adjustable dampers @ £125 each
2 x rear coil springs @ approx £50 each.

This is the ideal set up for a road car, and also for track days etc. It is very easy to adjust, and the adjustment range is huge.

I hope that helps, again, please come back to me of you have further questions.

Best regards
Beverley

Dear Allan,

Yes, we do suspension and brakes for the Seat Cupra typeR.
We can build you a fully adjustable oil kit, right through to a 3-way gas adjustable kit with remote canisters.
Is the car for road use only, or do use use it for tracks days or competition. If you can let me know, I can recommend the best type of set-up for you.
Obviously, funds will play a part too, as a top of the range kit could cost upwards of £2000.

My colleague, Matthew Stephens at TopStar Marketing will get back to you with prices for the brake parts.

I look forward to hearing from you shortly.

Best regards
