Gti ARB
#26
Put it this way, since I went to the coilovers with mine, I think the springs are ~300lbs so probably a bit hard for what I need, with the GTi6 ARB it seems to "waddle" over any sort of rutted road, I can feel the suspension being pulled around, it feels like it can't soak up any bumps without screwing up the whole car... That's just how it feels to me - it feels like on the road when you hit something, it affects the other side...

The rear feels about correct since obviously I've not adjusted the rates from the VTS beam... BUt the front feels like the suspension simply isn't doing it's job of actually tracking the road, it's out and out grip levels are probably slightly improved, but it feels like it doesn't track the road half as well as when I had the stock shocks and springs on...

Is it bad that I actually want to return to OEM GTi6 suspension?
