- We have Michael Schublacker @BIGMSB in the workshop with his Golf GTI. It makes serious power for a FWD car. Our job is to upgrade the suspension so it can put that power down.

You guys are absolute legends! What an transformation to the car 💨💨💨
Always awesome to be part of your projects 🔥
amazing video as usual!
Love the knowledge keep going!
Thanks very much! Really pleased you’re enjoying it!
these look really good, how do the top mounts in road setting compare to the fixed Superpro top mounts offering 1 degree extra negative camber? How much extra camber is there in the two settings?
Great question and thanks for the comment! Our fast road settings adds 1 degree over standard and the track setting will set to between -2.2 and -2.6 degrees depending upon ride height 👍
If you have pre-set camber options, you're going to effect front toe as well though surely and possibly end up with way more toe out or in? Or do you align it in such a way that it's set to an acceptable toe setting for road but the track pre set option is the ideal setting?
Thanks for the comment. The camber plates are designed with two settings in them (fast road and track) you choose at the point of installation which mode you want them in and then align the toe settings once fitted. They are not a quick change design where you can adjust them at the track etc.
They need to be installed for your main use of the vehicle so if the majority of the driving time is on track then fit them in track mode or if it’s mainly a road car then the fast road setting will be perfect.
The two adjustment points are also there for if your purpose for the car changes during ownership and you can simply re-adjust them and then re-align the toe without having to purchase new top mounts etc 👍
Hope that makes sense 🙌
How long you reckon you'll have an offering for the F40 chassis M135i xdrive, as I'd like a little more front camber, currently it's .5 degree neg.
It’s not currently at the top of our development list but we can certainly look into a solution 👍
with the mounts, is there much NVH?
None to report. We use the best bearings on the market to ensure the best longevity and performance with as little NVH as possible. If you have any questions please feel free to get in touch.
Which dampers with the Eibach Racingline springs? Are the comfortable enough for a daily driver?
This car retained the OEM dampers. The ride is 20% stiffer with the eibach springs fitted but definitely comfortable enough for road use still.
