y'all bitching about "wheel gap" bullshit are looking at it with the suspension jacked up for transport:



What it actually looks like after being set up for driving:



If that isn't low enough, buy a rusty mk4 and some $200 used coilovers

Good point, forgot about the transport. Looks much better in the second

No it NEEDS MOAR LOW. And everyone knows bags are for bitches, as are switches.

It is all about static low.

22FTG or GTFO mommas boy.

^ I agree with this...Bagz, Brotiform Ramz, Windshield Sticker "Bagged Lyfe", and a pair of Oaklay's that fit in the sun glass holder.


But on a serious note, that suspension looks perfect

Is it weird that I know that it is an EJ Civic Hatch :eek:

no. My immideate thought was "what a waste of a perfect good ej hatch, if your gonna cut up a car do it to the sedan."

Well....it's not low enough. :iono:


Doesn't need much, just an inch off the top would be good. LOL


Congrats man, gorgeous car....and I had almost talked myself out of swapping the GTI for the mk7 R and then you go and do this. Punk.


:icon_secta:


Break it in nice and then hit the track and see what she can do!! :w00t:

I was going to post but then I realized that my GTI is on stock suspension too so I might get flamed by modderz.

This new R needs nothing. No one goes to buy a Lamborghini and "dropz 1 inch aggressive brah"

EDIT: Not saying the R is a Lamborghini but the R is definitely a niche car. Compare the R to a regular mk7 golf and you will see that the engineers gave it the suspension height with the most functionality AND performance/reliability in mind

Dammit now I'm going to have to buy my next car from the factory so that I can unwrap it!

I always thought I'd be buying slightly used cars that have taken the initial depreciation hit. But this experience may be worth the $$...

Is it weird that I know that it is an EJ Civic Hatch :eek:

Thought the same thing. "I know that door handle..."
