Afternoon all,
My front droplinks on my Rev3 NA are on their way out. I have plans for a fast road setup for the car with some coilovers to be fitted. Would standard droplinks be up to the task?
OEM ones for the front are priced at £108 for one front, so i've found a set of 'Delphi' ones for £50 a pair. Would these be up to the task?
I wouldn't mind paying the extra for adjustable ones but i've heard stories of them knocking after not many miles from road use. I'd be doing alot of miles if that helps!
Cheers

With standard struts there is no benefit whatsoever to adjustable length droplinks.

I understand that they offer no benefit, but with a full set of adjustable coilovers in the future would there be anypoint in replacing them for standard droplinks then having to uprate to adjustable ones? Or would standard droplinks be capable enough?

Most coilovers require shorter front droplinks. Many makes use a rear droplink at the front, but others use a custom shorter length.

On the basis that i will be upgrading my suspension, what would you say to do with the droplinks? I'm still abit unsure. I don't want to be spending £50 on new front ones knowing that i'll have to source new ones in a couple of months.

Go for them in the mean time and get good ones when you know what you want.
