J5KE F 0 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 Probably one of the most talked about mods for the mk3 vr and a very confusing area.FK highsports:(Height adjustable only), seem to be the most popular,However spending around £150 more you can have height and ride adjustment on koni springs with the FK Konigsports.Are these worth spending the extra on?Basically, prices range from £300 - £800 but do you get what you pay for? i mean has any one had the silverline upgrade on the FK's & if so, does it really make a lot of difference? !dodge Link to post Share on other sites
purple highline monster 0 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 i just have FK highsports, they are very good imo (i think i paid £400 ish from Venom next day delivery), not harsh or crashy over bumps and firm enough for having a "play" very good adjustment, and really nice quality, konigsports are probably a bit better again with the extra bump/rebound adjustment on the koni insert, imo H&R are very good coilovers (£800) but i had them on my rallye and wouldnt say they were any better than the FK highsports i have now! for half the price! apparantly the silverline ones resist corrosion a lot better?? think they all get a hammering in this countrys climate!

MrBen 0 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 I've driven a couple of VRs with Highsports, then drove one with Konigsports, and knew I needed Konigs! Mine have been on a couple of months now, and after a few plays with the damping, I have got a quite decent ride quality (never will be great with chunky ARBs and 40 profile tyres!), and it handles very nicely. Compared to mine, I found cars with Highsports a bit bouncy unless they ran quite a high ride height. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 I've got konigs on mine... exceptional handling over the high sports.. Link to post Share on other sites
stockers 1 Posted January 7, 2006 Report Share Posted January 7, 2006 i got highsports for £320 from venom, they can be a little bouncy on the motorway but on the whole they are a good ride quality Link to post Share on other sites
mk3anni 0 Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 I've had both, konigs make the highsports look crap! Link to post Share on other sites
