This was a interesting and super well documented tutorial.

I’m going to install my springs myself too, do we know the torque wrench figures for refitting everything at all?

Regards

Ashley

I’ve got them on the PC will find them and post up.

Geometry done today courtesy of Drury Lane Autos.....
Paul has had a brand new Hunter machine installed since my last visit...

Such a knowledgable guy too really makes time to chat about cars etc....

Taking car to another alignment specialist on Wednesday for a second go at the left camber red reading.

Also the rear camber needs balancing up more as it’s not equal on the read out.

Sometimes seeing who you think is a specialist isn’t always the case. 🤬

agreed. Had this many a time when balancing wheels and alignment issues. Just because the machine is meant to be the b*llocks doesn’t always mean the person sitting behind the wheel and making the adjustments is.

Many thanks for the detailed diagrams and torque figures 👍

Everything checks out ok.

Just goes to show how long settlement after fitting new springs can take, 4 days just isn’t enough.

Hi,

Interested in your driving impression as I already have the rear ARB and thinking of getting the Eibach Pro Kit.

I am wondering if the handling on circuit track would be better or same...

Also, did you get the mag ride recalibration?

 

Cheers

You are going to need the recalibration for the magride - DJ Alex is the man if local to London.

Yes the handling is much better.
RS3 is my daily drive but i like to go to the nurnburg ring few times a year.
I haven’t got the mag ride option.

Anyone know the spring rate range for Eibach Pro Kit E10-15-021-13-22? 

Also, OEM spring rates?

Edited by EdmundVR4, 26 October 2018 - 01:16 PM.

[EdmundVR4]

I know the Eibachs are progressive rate springs, would anyone know if the initial spring rate is softer than OEM?

These roads here are terrible! Hoping they would give a more compliant ride when not driving in anger...

Eibach are normally slightly longer but with a softer progressive spring even tho the ride high ends up lower.

 

In the past i've used them & you wouldn't be disappointed with the ride quality mate.

 

The RSs are IMO over sprung.

I've fitted them on 2 PFL both owners are happy with them just as others are.

Better than stock & a change of dampers wouldn't go a miss either.

A quality spring & as for bottoming if you lower the car your suspension travel is lessened by the same amount.
