Apart from the mkV golf and the awd stuff like R32/S3 there isn't many vag cars hottuning don't cover. Price for mk1/2/3 is $700 + postage for reference. I can also organise someone to fit them for you too.

I notice Hottuning in Belgium does stainless extractors and exhaust systems.

When you gonna get us some of them Robin ?

I'm waiting on prices as I've got a few bmw people after those. Strut top mounts are an oem part.

for everyone who has hot tuning, how do you find this suspension for road use only? too stiff?

looking to get a set on my mk1 golf...

thanks in advance!

Depends mate, I love them but am running stock 60 profile tyres which reduces the stiffness, but does also reduce the handling due to tyreflex on such a large sidewall. I find it is a good compromise though.

I would prefer 55's maybe as this would give better handling around corners but would also make the ride firmer.

for an everyday driver and to allow a lot of fun I use 60 profiles. It beats most things round corners due to weight etc and is much more fun than a standard suspension set up.
