Hi people, i'm working on a wee project and would like to know what the best suspension set-up for a 99 106 gti is?? i was thinking of bilstein adjustables, full polly bushses, lower the back torsion bar and a strut brace..while i'm running this car on 15's. need help quick on this. cheers people!!!

 

anyone????????

 

Just sold my 106 gti,before i got the scooby, i had Koni's all round and found they where great, stuck to the road like glue,and dare i say would be a match for my scoob

 

Silverstrike, never had a 106 but I've had the 309 and 205, you're on the right lines of thinking there.
Full Koni set-up all round is a good start, poly-bushes add a little extra but remember they will make road driving harsher, the torsion bar and rear anti-roll bar can be uprated with Peugeot sport parts I believe, and AFAIK they make a big difference, front anti-roll bar and front strut brace tighten things up further at the front. After that you're looking at ecentric top mounts and/or coilovers on the front then your talking big ££££ and a lot of set-up time to get it right.
Think you might struggle to get a rear strut brace though due to the fact theres nowhere to bolt it to

Thicker torsion and ARB will help
