Hey buddy. They are GTI-6's.

ATK, any joy with that dimension?

 

Still waiting on my rear shocks arriving, you got the last pair.

Sorry buddy, forgot about the measurement - car's in having some work done at the moment so will do it ASAP for you

Sweet, I was just being nosey. Just bought the exact same setup. Looking forward to nailing it all together. Especially because of how nice you say it makes the car. Only difference mine will be std height until I have the beam overhauled and then who knows!

If you're putting Eibach 7001's on the front but not lowering the rear won't it be a problem as the Eibachs will lower the front by 35mm or so and if the rear is higher it'll handle badly? Not sure, no doubt someone can chip in and advise you

ATK, thanks.... Don't forget!

 

I fitted my rear shocks this afternoon, from road to metal above bumper is 545mm but the full lot hasn't been on the road yet so maybe change when that eventually happens.

 

Just the front anti roll bar bushes, which i've been putting off doing, and track rod ends to do and that will be everything renewed on mine.

That's for the heads up ATK, but am sticking with STD front springs until such time that I do the beam. Until then it should still handle (he says!)

Ah, sorry, thought you were also fitting the Eibachs! Should be fine then

ATK? measurement?
