AUDI RS2 Suspension Upgrades

[Lloyd]

They're easy enough to fit. No problems.

I thought the ride in yours wasn't too much harsher than mine Lloyd. I'm on Koni's and stock springs. I've put off ever going lower, but I must admit I am very, very tempted to pick up some H&R's as it just looks too high

Are you ever going to divulge your secret geometry settings?

[Lloyd]

Yeah, the RS2 does look like it's on stilts with the stock length springs.

I need to find the geo sheet from TDI who did the setup for me. From memory it's something like 1.5 degrees negative camber at the front, one degree neg at the back. 2min toe in at the front and a fair bit less than stock toe at the back to help make the back end more lively.

Hi Jay, apologies to interject and I hope you don't mind? You might have come across my KW coilover group buy thread and I would love to help out an RS2 owner!

Just for your reference, KW Variant 3 Inox Line part #35210017 = £1370.00 inc VAT and delivered to your door. http://www.kw-suspensions.co.uk/uk/kw_variant_3.php

Let me know if you find it cheaper elsewhere.
Thanks

I have just got a RHD RS2, high miles but cheap enough to spend some money on and the banging and craching from the current suspension is a good place to start. The car will get mods to brakes and engine in time so that I can track it but it has to be sensible for road use.

I believe there are a couple of types of Konis, usually fitted with lowering springs, and I know there are various coil over kits on the market. What does anyone suggest?

Has anyone fitted a rear strut brace to the RS2? I was considering a custom one built into a half roll cage (removeable) to provide harness mounts for on the track.
