i am planning to lower the car .will use eibach springs.any experience with that?any other suggestions? [img]images/graemlins/s4anogaro.gif[/img]

My other car runs with Eibach Springs and yellow Koni adjustable dampers. I find the Eibachs a little on the soft side. Have your considered H&R springs?

I didnt realise Eibach made springs for the S2/RS2. Ive heard good things about the H&R's though

Greg i think you are right.i have just checked their web site and they dont tell anything about s or rs cars.here is their application list

Model Chassis/Body Beg Year End Year
A4, Sedan, 2WD, 4 Cyl.
B5 11/1994 01/1999
A4, Sedan, 2WD, 6 Cyl.
B5 11/1994 01/1999
A4, Sedan, Quattro, 4 Cyl.
B5 11/1994 01/1999
A4, Sedan, Quattro, 6 Cyl.
B5 11/1994 01/1999
A6, Sedan, Quattro, 6 Cyl.
C4 12/1990 03/1997

why i can make mistake is: i use this brand very often,they have a distributer here in turkey.
i will check h&r now.will post the result here,if you are also interested in springs

they might have it.here is a list from a webpage

Timucin - where does this list of parts come from?

I was going to fit H&Rs to mine but checking their 2004 application details on their web site they aren't there any more - they were when I looked a month ago - we may have missed the boat... [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] I've emailed them for confirmation.

gimme some time will find and post the part numbers for you

I have H&R coilovers on my Corrado. They are a very well engineered package. H&R always specify the model to their coilover kits, so the dampers are matched to that vehicle. For example, they do seperate kits for the Corrado 16v, G60 and VR6 - as H&R specify different dampers for each. Koni on the otherhand just do one coilover kit, but their dampers are adjustable. I have a mate with Koni coilovers on his Corrado and that is definitely a little softer than mine on H&Rs. Both corner very flat and feel very controlled. The H&Rs do give a very firm ride, which is great on smooth surfaces but can be a little harsh on bumpy B roads in the UK. [img]images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
Certainly coilovers give a wide range of height adjustment, but you then have to be careful of wheel contacts in the arch and watch the front spoiler. [img]images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
AmD generally recommend using either H&R or Eibach springs with Koni T/A dampers if not going the coilover route. I was under the impression that Eibach's were generally a little harder than H&Rs in most VW/Audi applications - but I have no experience of either on a RS2.
It may be worth talking to or emailing AmD or QST on the subject as I am sure they will be able to give you guidance from their vast experience.

I plan buy KWSuspension. Many guys at Germany use it! Look at:

I've had a reply and H&R still do springs for the RS2 the part number for a set of 4 is 29969-1 [img]images/graemlins/jump.gif[/img]
