Featured Replies

Whoops! Did you forget?

 

No, just a lazy ******... 

 

Bit Silly... tbh wont be doing it again. 

 

Love the ride on these. Front looks great, but for me the rear just isnt low enough!

 

Did you replace the rear bump stops for Ibiza? I don't know if they actually make it any lower, but mine sits fairly level.

  • Not very visible but there's me and 2 passengers in the car when this pic was taken, it didn't rub at all and still went over bumps fine    

  • 4 up and 75 KG of coal in the boot. No bother, and myself and and SWMBO arn't 10 stone skinnies! 

  • Good quality kit for the money and made by KW in Germany so a well known leader in suspension. Damian @ DPM Performance

Yeah I replaced the bump stops to the shorter Ibiza ones! Mine seems higher at the back!

Ah well who cares. It's irrelevant as you have a GT86 to enjoy. 

 

I'm not jealous at all. 

 

Bastid.  :love:

For those of you with the AP spring set, did they come with front bump stops like coilovers, or did you have to get them too?

I've just had ST springs and shocks (made by KW) on mine. The ride is firm and a little 'busy' at speed on some surfaces but I really like them. The handling has been transformed!

Can't remember now but i am 99% sure they didn't

Sort of - except the shock and spring on the rear is seperate :)

So would people definitely recommend the Ibiza bump stops to run with the AP 25mm kit?

 

Is this the correct part number for them? 6Q0 512 131 D

 

Is the benefit literally just so the suspension doesn't bottom out as soon?

 

Would I also need shorter drop links or would it not be considered low enough?
