Re: Weitec Suspension for Scirocco (smash929)

I have had the weitec 60/40 GT kit on my Jetta for 3yrs plus. Im so happy with it that im getting weitec coilovers for both of my cars. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

I looked in the Tuning Zubehor catalog and they list a 16v Rabbit which is the same part # as the Rocco16v. If want the part number let me know.

quote:[HR][/HR]i have a 16v. so its heavier on the front =\[HR][/HR]​
i have the 60mm A1 kit in my 16v. it lowered it ~75mm. it does not bottom out, or ride harsh. actually i love the ride. i have had 4 different setups (excluding stock) in this rocco, and by far this is the best.
wetic is extremly high quality. take a close compairative look at the wetic rear shock/bushing/pearch, and that of a competitor. comes stanard with poly bushings, 50mm adjustable rear spring pearch (almost easier to adjust that coilovers (i had them inthe car too).
if i did it again,i would upgrade tothe adjustable TX. or go with wetiec coilovers.

Re: Weitec Suspension for Scirocco (rockin16v)

hey guys,
I recently ordered the 80/60mm drop from weitec. i believe the kit is from a 16v rabbit as well. Is this going to give me problems fitting 205/40/16's?? I really want to go 16's but i also do not want to see any tire tread.
Its gotta be a bit tucked. Is this going to be good, or too low?

Re: Weitec Suspension for Scirocco (djdizolve)

if your putting a 80mm front drop from a rabbit in your rocco, thenthe drop will be close to 100mm!

i have 95mm front, but that is using custom made upper spring caps (~18-20mm)
you'll be riding on the bumpstop with a 100mm spring and factory stut housings.
wetiec makes a kit that helps with this. check their catalogue for details.

Re: Weitec Suspension for Scirocco (rockin16v)

i wonder if I should just change my order to a 60mm dop all around? I dont want to end up bing waaaay to low and regret it. My MK3's lowered about 3.5" on Weitec coilovers so im used to driving low, but it has to be drivable. Any ideas?
