And some follow up on the Koni FSD post a while back. Suspension rides well though I do hear some clunking from the front right. Seems like stock sport with renewed damping.
It might be my eyes or perhaps they really did settle a bit. Finally measured and found:
FL 25 7\8 FR 26 1\4
RL 26 1\8 RR 25 7\8
Kinda, odd, doncha think? Car was in garage on level ground when measured
BTW, iridiums go in tomorrow morning. Engine is hot now.

But all are a bit higher than '02 oem suspesion that was removed.
I must temper any complaints, though, as the stock suspension was worked hard since February '02: hauling stuff work work, hauling friends, family, and co-workers. . .and moving 'cross-country (loaded to the top) twice.

I would have preferred a firmer sport suspension but it would not have been "wife approved". She was not a fan of the Neuspeed/Bilstein setup on the GTI. I loved driving it but there was no doubt it was not pleasant on trips.
