After a lot of work, I today finally got the S2 alligned for the first time in 2,5 years. I own the car since June 2009.
The S2 is a nice one, but I had to replace almost everything what's under the car.
Nice brandnew yellow Koni's. Thanks for arranging those for me Bram! Thanks to Aelred also, as he offers them for a lower price than they cost here in their homecountry.
Fitted some H&R springs which I got for a friendly price from my mate DJ-ROY. Hope to see you soon mate.
Also fitted some Powerflex goodies. Thanks to Henkjan to lend me you new powerflex diffmount, as they were burnt down and were hard to find. I have a new one laying here Henkjan, so you can mount it also.
Also fitted a lot of new balljoints, connection rods, steering arms and other things like solid subframebushes from a Dutch member. Good work mate!
As my rear was laying a bit too high, I've mounted the solid subbushes reversed, which gave me the last 2 mm. It is on a nice height now. The picture is from before the subbushes were reversed, and it lowered it selve some more after driving and settling. A subwoofer and 2 amplifiers are also installed now. Will take some more pics soon and going to measure the weight balance of the car on my work.
I do have some new parts laying for the suspension, but that's for a next time. It's alligned, drives nice in a straight and is giving some more info while cornering.
It still is comfortable, and still have some bodyroll, I think the Koni's can have some more tension, but I took the average setting from the members with Konis from this forum.
Will drive it for some time like this, and continue some other projects.
