    best track coilovers for rs2?

    im looking for coilovers for my rs2 and wondering wich are the best for trackdays?

    K&W coilovers?
    H&R coilovers?

    i cant imgaine that adjusteble dampers/ some springs are better than coilovers?

    some onlineshop in uk/germany where i can buy these at a good price?
    are they coming with topmounts? if not what topmounts to buy? 034motorsport?

    the rest of the setup looks like this

    whiteline 18mm rarb/modified by quattronics to fit on avant with the reinforcement fittings like neuspeed
    poly bushes all around (delrin needable?
    slotted/ drilled discs? (drilled good/bad?)
    ferodo pads
    toyo tr1 215-35/17 on org porsche cup
    better mounts for engine/tranny/ subframes (alu/delrin)



    cheers!

    I would suggest KW Race coilovers - you choose the spring rates etc
    RS2+ (now sold...)

          i cant decide, is h&r/ k&n coilovers worth the money? or is some springs/ shocks enough? everyday use but trackdays often..

            For track use and ultimate handling coilovers everytime. Proper corner weighting will improve the handling further which is something you can't do with an ordianry spring/shock combo.

              Also forgot to add, KW's are good if you don't mind forking a bit extra.

                      I think that's about the same here too. H&R's must be super expensive or something...
