I am currently running V-Maxx coilovers with non adjustable damping on my Mk4 GT TDI but I'm looking for something a bit stiffer. What do you guys recommend?
Cheers,
Jamie

Donor struts (09 WRX) and Koni's (in boxes.
Here are some photos.
Without them, stiffer springs aren't going to perform up to their potential Adjustable Dampers, rears only, today.
