im ordering the fk highsport coilovers for my 1.9tdi (FKVW44) 50mm strut £220.15 bargain considering how much everywhere else sells them for over £400+

So how are we meant to find out what size the kits are? Ive searched all over the website for more details but cant see any way to check, if i need 55m kit then the A3 kit wont fit will it?
How hard would it have been to put the strut size on there  :stupid:

fk highsport coilovers
55mm ones are code FKVW16 for gti (03-08)
or 55m FKVW47 (05-08)

fk ak street coilovers
55mm  SMVW9007 £133

had coilovers in my starlet was 715 for them and was hard as hell so never buying coilovers again


....It depends on which brand of coilovers, how adjustable they are and how well they are set up (it's not just about going low). How good your car's chassis is probably makes a difference too. What's a "starlet"? Jap?

You won't go wrong with Bilstein and KW, providing you have them set up properly.

Yes gt turbo from Japan

Had bc racing coilovers when they first came on the go :) there fully adjustable up n down left and right lol had them proper set up on machines cost me a lot to be done for knock hill race circuit :) spent basically 30 to 40k building my car over the years n broke it for spares n bought a mk5 diesel lad

Got new suspension so won't be buying coilovers again not into the race scene now got a comfy diesel lol if am going racing again buying a radical or a atom :)
