Hi, Im thinking of purchasing the Weitec Ultra GT Suspension kit for my Ibiza sport 1.9 tdi 130. So what do people think about this kit? I've already put 17's on the car and got a custom code phase 1 remap. Then went to JABBA sport for my clutch to match the remap. The Weitec kit was recommended to me as it doesn't have a bone shattering ride and will give my car good performance at a good price. I've found it for £265. Sound good?

By the way im looking at springs and shocks rather than coilovers as the ride is meant to be more comfortable. Also much cheaper than a lot of coilovers.

Any experience with other kits that are fairly similar are welcome.

Coilovers now arent necessarily a harder ride than just springs and dampers. I have the weitec coilovers on my vrs and love them, handling is much improved and still a comfortable ride. We can supply you with the weitec's springs and dampers no problem though. What is the main thing you want to get out of the suspension though, looks? comfort? performance?

Im not really bothered about looks. Just want a fairly comfortable ride thats not much worse than a cupra's, with better performance than a cupra. I know i have a sport, but having driven my brothers cupra 1.8T, I thought he had less roll and a more comfortable feel over the bumps. Mine feels a lot more crashy. I thought it would be more likely to be the other way round till i drove it. Have you heard or experienced this before?
