    Played removalists on Monday.
    Trailer was a little overkill for one two-seater couch, but hey, I didn't pay to borrow it!
    Trailer much larger than car - semi trailer mode engaged.

    Hey Fizz
    Have you changed the Front Sway bar?
    just the rear?
    You still running stock Dampers/springs

    If only the Rear, how's the front roll vs the rear roll, as the roll moment wont be very well 'tuned', or are the MK3 a stiff chassis....

    Cheers

    I've never heard of that brand before I'll have to look into them. Awesome, a sway bar is definitely on the wishlist haha.

    Currently Stock Suspension only rear Sway bar replaced.
    car is alot more neutral through corners when pushed. where as before I would feel the rear roll alot being a longer car. You can get matching front and rear sway bar kits, but I've never felt it necessary with my Mk4, Mk5 GTI's and even with the Octavia RS being sports models their chassis/suspension is stiffer/sportier to begin with.

    They one of a few that does seperate front and rear bars rather than a kit. They were extremely reasonably priced and arrived at my door within 5 days of ordering. I'm very happy with it. Just the bar alone has transformed the handling.

    Yes I can't wait. My slush fund has also taken a knock with everything I've done also friends of ours have finally decided to tie the knot except its not local so there goes $1k for flights and accomodation for my wife and I. Currently saving to get the new Clutch and LSD fitted. Then will look to fit the springs.
