Did 285km/h at vmax but was a little over a mile I believe. On the other hand I did not use launch control either that day.

how do the uprated ARB's and Eibach springs affect the ride comfort?

[superbtte]

Biggest difference is the stability when cornering. Also feels more stable at higher speeds. Ride is firm but still comfortable. 

[The Skud]

Is it a lot firmer than stock, also can't remember if you have DCC or not.......got to say that this is one absolutely astonishing build ! I've read this whole thread and what you have built is something really special.

 

[superbtte]

Not much firmer at all. 

I may install a set of bilstein B14's soon so will let you know how those compare too.

Absolutely fantastic - just shows you how well engineered the standard Superb is....and the 'mods' you have made are so carefully considered and executed.

 

I tip my hat to you sir. Very well played (and long may it continue...looking forward to the future tweaks unfolding)  

 

I just wish it had been an estate version...I've a soft spot for those

Hi Dave, a friend did something similar to his estate 280

Thank you for your kind words.

Any updates?! I'm sure you must have been back to the strip by now?! 

[superbtte]

I am afraid that car has been in for some work and has been delayed. Hope it will be done soon.

Handling better. Which I suppose can also make it go faster...

it's exactly what I appreciate and what I would want into a car. lots and lots of performance with the (almost) standard looks and most important, it is still practical and used as family car.

Just read the whole thread.

 

Really awesome, a pleasure to eyes and heart!

 

Thanks a lot for sharing: I like very much the style!

Read it all from the beginning excellent post and a 'superb' car, love the tasteful discreet mods to compliment the sleeper look and the hidden gauges inside
