aminder 4 Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 eibach anti-roll bars' date=' top brand damping adjustable coilovers (hard setting), big brembo brakes with 15" wheels with top brand tyres i.e. eagle f1's.[/quote']Upgrade rear bar only (induces more oversteer) I did front and reverted as didn't like handling.Good set of coilys are def - I did first track day on hottuning ebay ones - beat the sh*t out of themGet in touch with diluxe on CGti he sold his mk3 and has a set lying around.Brembo brakes will help, but not really worth it if you not increasing power on car, get standard VAG discs (~£40 each on trade) and Mintex M1155's also run some racing fluid (I use Halfords one - took about 1 litre to bleed and fill system)As for Tyres you really should be looking for some proper track tyres R888's or full slicks (look around online, bay, ed38) and pick up a used set if you can't afford spankers.You will def get your use out of them, and will not let you down on the day when they super heat.
