CGT suspension upgrades -



Howdy - always thinking of the future.  In my last Coupe GT, we installed Boge
shocks and cut the stock springs to lower the ride height.  A bit crude, but
it worked and the car handled excellently.  In the 4000Q, I've got Eibachs.
Great handling springs, but not low enough.  Jamex makes a suspension for GT's
I know - 60mm drop (about 2.25 inches).  I have the 40mm drop suspension in my
Rabbit GTi - it's okay, but a lot more bounce than the Eibachs.  How are
H&R's?  Anyone have a moderate suspension (read - no bilstein sports with
coil-over conversions...) suggestion?  My first approach would be Boge shocks
and H&R's for affordability - if I have the money, I'll opt for the Koni
yellows (but I'm doing a coilover conversion on the Quat this summer, so low
budget)  Enough talk - opinions?

Thanks -
