Topic: Suspension upgrades
Evening! So I had a total derp moment when I realized that repairs to the fuel system are UPSTREAM of the fuel pump. Our awe inspiring VW kitsune had issues DOWNSTREAM! Doh!!!!
So as far as brakes, suspension, etc, what is counted under safety and what is considered non-exempt? Lowering springs? Bilstein/Koni Shocks? Home fabricated strut tower bars? Oversized sway bars? Big brake kits? I can upgrade the brakes to 4 wheel discs using GTi parts, and Wilwood makes a kit for that I can use with the factory 9.4 rotors or gti 10.1 rotors. Also I can upgrade to vented discs vs the solids that are on there. However, those upgrades, even using JY parts as much as possible, will run around 2-3k would that count towards the cost of the car? Or does it fold into safety? I plan on being at around $800-900 dollars on the cars purchase/ go fast price, but if I upgrades suspension and brakes like I want and it turns out those upgrades count towards to cost of the car that would be no bueno! Might as well call ourselves Team BS Factor racing! Lol
