One of our customers just finished installing a set of KW Variant 3 Coilovers on his brand new Volkswagen Golf R. The new MK6 Golf R is the successor to the previous Volkswagen R32 which debuted in 2009. Finally coming to the USA in 2012, the Golf R was the next big tuner car for Volkswagen. The Golf R comes with all wheel drive and a 2.0L FSI turbo engine. Available in either the automatic DSG or 6 speed transmission, it scoots to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds. What this car is in power is very similar to our Project Audi A3 with the K04 turbo upgrade by Stasis. With this much power, suspension is key. This Golf R was fitted with a proper set of KW Variant 3 coilovers. Having used KW on several of our own project cars, KW is also our first recommendation for customers that drive their car daily, but enjoy a good weekend track day. The independent adjustable rebound and compression offers the ultimate in tuneability to your driving behavior. Adjustable ride height allows you to get the look you want. KW’s patented bump-stop material acts like a 3rd spring allowing the spring rates to be softer for a smoother street ride, but when pushed, will out handle the competition. Check out all the KW Coilovers available for your vehicle here.
