Hiya mate,
I'm running an

'89 rev1 mk2 on standard struts with fensport 30mm lowering springs and 15" rims.

Ride was noticeably harder after the spring change but not hard enough to make me want to change back and loose the much improved cornering

'feel' due to the decreased body roll.

Looks miles better too.

Some will say coilovers are the way forward.

they're also very expensive and very adjustable.

How often do you think your gona want to adjust them for road driving though? Will you be doing alot of track racing? They may ultimately be better in terms of getting around a given corner quickest but by the time your pushing hard enough to be able to tell the difference your well over any speed limit and on a public road your putting yourself and others in real danger.

I'm sticking with just the springs but if your budget allows maybe mildly uprate your shocks to yellow billies and fit at the same time to save hassle.

Oh, and change the too skinny, too big standard steering wheel as well.

You'll be surprised at the difference that makes to steering input and you have no airbag to loose anyway.
