God dam it!! Ha-ha - ok may have to revisit this - oh well I at least I have springs just need to look into suitable; dampers - any suggestions? Sports exhaust may have to wait a while longer And you say I need to replace bushes too - any idea of he cost of these? and part numbers? Ah well suppose buying the bits as I go along will spread the cost - just means I have to be patient which was never one of my strong points! 0- but I defer to the knowledge on this forum Thanks guys for the advice -

I have no problem with having to change the dampers at a later date.... Just economics.... This way I get what I want now and will have money to do more next year. Just my want it now attitude.... Don't mind if it costs a little more in the long run lol -

Fitting to standard dampers - couple of people mentioned on here they had done the same and that the ride was quite good still?? Just wanted to get a more acceptable ride height at the lowest possible cost withouit ruining the ride. - hope this proves to be true? -

Hope you get sorted. Do they have a Facebook page... Always worth an assault via social media and to tell them your are letting the forums know.... Yeah don't want mine too low.... The quoted 25mm is just about what I'm after. Will spend this week trying to locate the 110mm top plates.if can't get them cheaper will have to buy the eBay ones.... Will let you know how it ends up -

The springs i have bought are 2nd hand and apparently the car Sat well on them so hopefully they should be fine...... Once I locate the top plates. They are fairly new the car being written off and look to be very clean. ... Hope you manage to get yours sorted. Is yours a rare problem as previously saw good reports on them? -

Lol... Think 25mm is enough for me... Don't want to go too low and if front is 5mm lower than back can't imagine it being that noticeable. Just need to source the top plates. Not seen this mentioned before and loads on here fitted B12s -

Hey Supercharged - what do you mean?? the springs lower 25 mm rear and 30mm front.... or so I understand - these are same springs as on the B12 suspension! -

Im just going down this route - I have 95 M reg VR6 will I need to get the larger top mounts if so where from and how much - do I need for front and rear? Thanks -
Thought I was going mad having seen people of here having used liquid molly - tried searching for it again and could not find mention! So glad that's the right thing and was less tan half the price of VW stuff - think I need to be more generous with it though as did skimp on how much I used - but think it does sound like the motor - thanks Ian will speak to you soon David

Sounds idyllic! I need a holiday! But getting my garage up to scratch to the Corrado had a home took precedence!! oh well next year!
