So on Saturday I finally got a chance to fit those H&R springs I ordered from Sean last year for my mk2 Jetta along with Gabriel shortened shocks. I am overwhelmed, the ride is softer than standard springs and the handling is amazing, compared to another mk2 Jetta with cheap coilovers, my car is worlds ahead in both segments.
Thanks a lot Sean :thumbsup: now I know why you keep harping about buying tried and tested brands....

Never posted this on the forum, but the HnR springs i purchased for my toyota camry..., yes, you read right, camry are also awesome.
The camry is a big vehicle and while i felt it held its own on standard suspension with the 225/45/17 yokis i have on..., the HnR have really transformed the car.
The car was never designed to be sporty(not in SA at least- with almost no upgrades available) but the way it handles now, I just cant get enough of it. I have subsequently worn out my front tyres with of the hard cornering and braking but it is just worth it. I still find it comfortable, just a little stiffer and those who know camrys know that the ride is very soft. It understeers considerably less and is more predictable.
I feeling when you are able to out corner more expensive cars( although in a straight line my 2.0L, with 340000km on it has no chance)..., priceless.
I cant get myself to sell it..., the E60 is fun it its own right, the VW is like a dying horse that needs to be beaten, but the Camry just is...., different. The higher fuel consumption is balanced by the low running costs...lol.

and it will be even better with uprated dampers

I am planning on doing the H&R (front springs) with Koni dampers(all round) "upgrade/refresh" this weekend. It is going to be a long weekend. :skit:
I can't wait :rollsmile:

Hi Moranor,
Does H&R do coilovers?
Whats the suggestion for a E92 N54, with sport pack? on Stock 18's?
The Rears currently have no gaps, front sits quite high, but the car touches everywhere, I want to close the gap on the front without losing the handling quality, Can I have a Stance and quality handling?
Also considering a Rim upgrade to a 19 or 20 deep dish, Most likely maintain the 8.5j front and 9.5j rear config.
P.S I dont track the car, only highway fun where I can.
any suggestions?

it depends on what stance you want... slamming a car to the floor will never be great for ride and handling but you can have a functional lowered car that handles great and looks good
pop me a PM we can discuss further and work out what will be ideal for you :rollsmile:
