  • Anyone got Volkswagon Suspension on their festiva?

    Mines got 92 VW GTI suspension on it, Super stiff and makes the car handle awesome
    I have one tough looking festiva...even though it has 63hp :dj:

    Interesting. How much of the GTI suspension is on there, and what parts needed modified?
    A full write up gets you brownie points! :p Extra points if there are pics!

    BTW, I like your handle! *420*

      The MK2/3 VW stuff bolts up with a little work. See Postman's thread about fitting coilovers for details. If my Festiva GR2's crap out, I intend to upgrade to VW GR-2's.

      Discuss improvements to your Festiva or Aspire in the handling, braking, wheels and tires areas.

            I have Apex coil-overs on my festiva that were originally intended for an Mk-3

            If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

              Yeah the VW suspension is old hat.

              BTW, its Volkswagen. Lay off the pipe and your spelling might improve

                  Just cheap wheels I bought from pep boys for 200$ shipped to my door. Had em on for about 5 years now I think, offset would be nice if they were about 3mm closer in but for what I paid I wont complain.
