Help Identifing Coilovers

Recommended Posts

Can anyone identify these, I'm guessing they are JOM or Vmaxx?

Text from the rear coilover reads;

60 VW 023R

Auftr. No:804

 

Spring rates;

100-20 for the helper

200-50 for the main

 

Is this right for a VR6?

Just to confuse the party, I've seen JOM brand coilovers for Mk2's/Corrado's etc with red springs.

 

9/10 they are V-Maxx eBay specials tho.

Cheers all! That explains the ****e ride.

I've messed about with the ride height a few times and can't seem to get it right. I couldn't even get a toe under the spoiler when I bought it. Lol

In fairness cheap coilies work fine as a quick fix for a slammed car - I still have JOMs on from 18 months ago and the only irritation is a bit of a creaking noise when cornering hard. They're not a soft ride though!

 

The spring coating comes off the JOM ones within 6 months so they'll be rust-coloured in no time :D

These have been on for over 3 years, theses little corrosion as I re-grease ever year, just alot of dirt, but I just can't seem to set the ride height without them being to harsh, time for some upgrades methinks.
