I used to drive FSD's on the Essesse Koni kitted Abarth 500's all the time, the ride on them was ****ing beautiful.
Comparing apple with pears again are we Jrod?
Plus one,I was happy and drive a lot of country roadsI'm running FSD's with H&R springs and they feel fantastic
I was just thinking yesterday after driving down a local road near me that is being worked on a lot because of new houses around the area, just how bad the s3 is on the small dips and dumps, just crashes all the time on standard suspension and my brothers 306, also standard just glides over them!
I remember reading that before Jojo, thanks for the link. But since reading it I don't like the thought of a spring snapping. I know it took a lot of miles and a good few years to happen to you, but even still, I don't like it. Think I might just go for the H&R's.
I see a mention of tie bar's, are these a necessity or not.
Thanks.
Forget the last question found the answer in the forum.
So which tie bars to go for. Forge, Comp Brake or Kw. The Forge set are ****** expensive. Looking at the Comp Brake mainly due to price. Anyone had experience of these.
I thought S3Dave was no longer selling these.
Does someone have experience if FSDs are more comfortable than stock S3 dampers (with stock springs)? I'm after smoothest ride possible and I'm okay with the ride height.
Roads here where I live are not so good and cold winters tends to make supsension stiff. I'm running 225/40/18 tires, don't want to change them for any fatter tho.
As far as I'm aware, Koni don't make FSDs for the 8P S3. I've just posted to see if any of the usual suspects will fit. I too a chasing a better ride, and would indeed go to a 17" wheel with fatter tyres if I believed it would make a significant difference.
Let me know if you get any useful replies!
Cheers
