<div><x-tab> </x-tab>I have
been happy with my Bilstein/Neuspeed combo (H&Rs are similarly
priced) but that is a pricey option. You won't really save much on
springs, unless you get a package deal; ND and Autotech both have
packages with Boge shocks for much cheaper, which I considered. The
word is that the Boges don't hold up as well, but if you're getting
rid of the car soon, that's probably not an issue. I plan on keeping
my car for a while, so I spent the money on the Bilsteins.</div>

That wasn't my intention. Since the owner of the Yellow GTI
is not on the list, I thought it only fair to 'defend' his car from a
rather hypocritical insult; otherwise, I would never have flamed
another list member.
>Anyway, cut it out already.
I agree; let's pick on Hondas!
