MSS kit to retain DRC

Post by Wotsirb » Sat Nov 21, 2015 9:21 pm

Looks like a good option for adjusting ride height perfectly whilst retaining the factory DRC kit...

Thoughts?

Looks like a similar kit to the KW one that many of us already have.

Ah right... Just saw these guys in the new Audi Tuner Mag.

How does your car perform with the KW? Just want to get the nose down a touch as it seems to sit on it's arse a bit at standard factory height...

To be honest I couldn't tell a great deal of difference other than it looks so much better. Others have said it improves the ride etc. Not heard any negatives to the KW kit. The fronts can be adjusted on the car, but the rears are a bit harder to do.

Rear ride height seems fine, just sits about 15/20mm too high on the front! Did you go for the standard kit?

What standard kit? As far as I know there is only one option with the KW adjustable lowering spring kit. Or do you mean do I have ss or ss+ suspension?

I'm assuming there's a road/fast road/ track kit for spring rate?

I also have the KW Spring kit as I did not want to loose the DRC

It's great as said fronts are easy to adjust and go plenty low enough the rears are a fair bit more difficult tho with my small hands I did manage to mess with mine to get the hight I wanted .

As for the ride feels the same imo but there's less body roll
All in all I love it :)
