i have recently bought a mkv gt tdi140 and have lowered it with -50mm eibach sportline springs/ seat leon k1 shockers (cos back ones were leaking) the K1 suspension is same as golf but the Leon cupra & K1 has forged alloy hubs & wishbones (similar to old mkiv vs cupra r setup) with r32 calipers in red & 345mm discs (rear brakes setup same as gti/ed30) so i ive put wishbones on for now just waiting for my local SEAT garage to provide me with the right bolts to put caliper & discs on which im waiting 1 week for on order because their ETKA system has the wrong bolt for caliper carriers in their parts bin so has to be ordered from spain?
anyway moral of the story is the Leon K1 has something reallly special underneath what no other VAG group car has as far as ive seen for our Golfs not even r32 not sure about S3 but i will find out
i think seat did this strategy to sell the car better if not why didnt they put on flagship vw/audi R32/S3?
because if they did that i beleive that not as much sales in the seat perfomance range
all you have to do is look at polo gti vs ibiza cupra aswell you get more bang for your buck so to speak
like the mk1 Cupra R got quickshift steering rack
forged wishbones
thicker bushes
brembo brakes
when not even VAG's S3 got em
