Quick Query Please

[Black TDI Turbo]

Right before i get shot down in flames i have read through the posts on here and only found slight info for what im querying so could you please help me.

Im looking at getting a full set of ibiza cupra r suspension to go on my cupra, ive read a few thing but just want to clarify some of it for me please.

Who is it made by bliesten was mentioned but unsure
its 10 % stiffer than standard suspension
10mm lower

Now ive read that most people say dont bother but this kit is going pretty cheap like £50 or so, just wonder if its worth it, i really cant have my car any lower as its impractical but want the improved stiffer better handling

you comments and views on this please as i dont want to waste my money, if this isnt a good choice can you advise me on a kit which only slightly lower the car but improves the handling and stiffens it up but not like a go kart. Cheers Craig

Seat sport kit? Think it consists of Bilstein Shocks and Eibach springs. Good quality kit i would have thought. Lets face it, anything will be better than standard. Quite a few of the lads on here have tried them, Olly20VT being one if them i think, so might be worth asking him. If you have the cash you could always go for a set of coilovers, that way you can set it at any height you like.

When you say handling, what do you mean exaclty ?? Is the car suffering from body roll, under steer over steer. Iactually think the standard dampers are fine for road use.

I like the suspension on my car, a nice ride but not harsh at all. Ive never been in a normal cupra so i dont know how much different if it all it feels from a cupra?

No i dont mean the seat sport kit i mean the standards suspension fitted to the ibiza cupra r, its different to the cupra but its not the sport kit

If its £50 and all in good nick then get it. cant go wrong for a nifty can you?

I bought my seat sport suspension from a guy with a Cupra R and he said the standard suspension was still shite on the R in comparison.

I don't think its bilstein either.

Cupra R suspension is no different to the normal Cupra stuff, unless someone has fitted the SEAT Sport stuff (silver dampers).
