Hi all
My baby needs shocks + springs + brake pads + discs 4 (f/r)  + tires BADLY....
Scary isn`t it???????
As for tires i`m going for Avon zv-1 195/45 R15 at about 300e plus a set of MASitalys 15` rims for 600e.
Discs and pads are on hold till whenever i can afford them.... 
Springs are eibachs pro-kit for 280e.
And my biggest worry is the shocks.. I know koni is the way to go as i cannot find bilstein shocks for s3 33, but Kayaba`s (KYB) shocks with eibach springs are considered to be the best combination.
This month i`m going down for about 2500e as i`m also instaling a set of C&B cams and i`d hate to land on a tree or something lack of grip.
Help Anyone???

In a word, Koni.
'Nuff said. They'll change your life. (and your car!) |

If you aren't too affraid of stiffnes, go for Koni sport (yellow).
I don't know which 33 you own, but you might also consider roll bars .
Q: Which C&B cams do you plan to take and how much do they cost?

Hi
My car is an 1994 33 16V
Adam H, i have yellow koni`s in front, lowered about 2cm but still i wonder if KYB can be better..
Tvatavuk, I allready have a front antiroll bar  , the cams are C&B`s Sport cams (not Competition) for the 33 1,7 16V can`t remember the S/N. They`re used but in top shape, and with installation and various bits and parts will set me back about 900e
