OEM Volkswagen Starter motor

Rating 4.0

I ran the smaller mk3 starter for many years, and it was fine, but now that I have a new-to-me car with the original starter still in it- I prefer that one. It never bogs down, seems to have more torque.

Pros: more torque, never bogs
Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Rating 5.0

I opted to go w/the following: Golf R springs (euro wagon rears form E-ACCA), Koni Special Actives, Golf R bumpstops. I have about 5K on the setup, and absolutely love it. The tire-to-wheel cap is around 38mm front and rear, and there's very little sag with a loaded boot.

Pros: absolutely love it, very little sag
Mileage: 8047 km
Part number: SPECIAL ACTIVES

Bilstein Shock absorbers

Rating 5.0

I have OEM GTI fronts / Golf R rear springs, and Bilstein B6 rear shocks. I love this setup, it has a rear bias so it turns nicely, still comfortable, vastly better than the oem setup. A full GTI setup works well IF you use with those B6 rear shocks, otherwise the damping feels too light.

Pros: turns nicely, still comfortable
Part number: B6
