Suspension Thoughts?

Post by jbo »

Hi All,

I've decided to change the very cheap suspension in the rocco while the engine is off being rebuilt. I've spent so much cash on uprating everything else and these will let the whole lot down!

I'm torn between a set of AP Coilovers or Weitec HICON GTN. Any thoughts/advice or even other suggestions?

Cheers
Jason

Hi Jason -
I'm running AP fully adjustables on the Mk1 and the fully adjustable Weitecs (since 2008) on the Scala.
Both are very, very good - low and set up to be quite supple being 'urban' cars.
AP obviously a much lower price but based on the non adjustable sets on GTL and 16v are likely to be very durable too. I've got a set lined up for the 'precious' BRM so they must be good.

I've run Gts on both cars since Christ only knows when and they rock harder than me in a small elevator with heather Graham and pixie Lott.
