[ot] suspension guru's need help on a3

[nicadimus at hotmail.com (Eli Risch)]

my GF has that same yr GTI VR6, it has bilstien stuts and Hor springs 
(dailey driver). I enojy really enjoy driving it, not soft at all, but good 
& frim, not hard like my roc. Also been in a GLX with Jamex springs that 
handeled nicely.
FYI, the P-CHIP is a sweet upgrade
