Octy Rs Suspension

Im really happy with the comfort level on the rs at the moment so dont want to go lower, or make the car less bareable, was looking at the neuspeed rear anti roll bar to tighten things up abit, will this improve the lift of oversteer effect, what will be the advantage of getting one, they look well easy to fit, saw a golf with one today, please help me o wise briskodians

In a nut shell......

  • Flatter handling with less wallowing in the bends.
  • Reduction of understeer.
  • Lift off over steer.

The car will feel completely different!!! Powerflex poly bushes especially on the front and rear of the front wishbones are another good investment too!!

Re: Octy Rs Suspension

I have to say this sounds pretty tempting whilst keeping the standard ride height and comfort.

Re: Octy Rs Suspension

I've heard that Koni FSDs, in combination with ARBs and poly bushes, are good for improving the handling whilst keeping good ride comfort too

Look under a certain car and you will see a Neuspeed 28mm adjustable rear ARB, you only have to ask..................
