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

        Since it's snowing here today, and my car decided not to start today, it'll take me another day or 2 for pics

          Haha... Guess it's back to me sourcing the parts myself then. :\ Hit me up when you see my thread about my coilovers and I'll give you the stuff I've got on Casper for fairly cheap.

            the next time i'm out at the car i could look for serial numbers etc. to help you source these style coilovers, if these are the style you want

              If you would, that'd be appreciated... I looked over Fred's posts and saw they were from Apex Racing for an MK3 Non-VR6 Golf. I'm looking over on the VW boards to see what they think... I might lean towards a set of Koni's since I know they're nuts setups.

                    This is correct. They are for a MK3 VW Golf. The front top strut mounts are from a VW Fox and they are pressed into the outer shell of the OEM Festiva mount. If I were to do it again, I would source an adjustable camber plate instead, for strength reasons. I was looking into plates for the BF 323s because I have a feeling they will fit.

                    My old Festiva, last I saw, sits about as low as you'd want to go with this setup. You really have to crank the springs down low on the front perchs, which doesn't leave much stroke.

                        your old car is in good hands, when i get it back up and running, i had intended on trying to get a hold of you to meet up etc.

                              :laughing3: since i know this is your favorite festiva, you'll be first in line, but it could be a very long wait since i don't intend to part with it for a long time
