Hey guys. I have the 03 sport package. I'm looking to stiffen up the ride a bit. I've heard that adding the s4 rear sway will make it tighter. The question is will it really make that much of a difference? is it worth the 200 for the part plus labour? Also next year I would like to change my suspension. Which aftermarker cup kit will be a tad lower then the current 03 sport?

 

go with the rs4 rear sway bar, it will make a bigger difference especially coming from a sports package. less body roll during cornering and turns, a very cheap mod to increase handling of the car. i don't regret doing it at all.

 

cool I forgot about rs4..Can I get one from the dealer?

 

If you're upgrading your sway bars, you can also consider non-OEM kits. I like the H-Sport A4 set on my car.

Eibach springs tend to be the most conservative, but still gives you a nice drop from '03 sports package.

 

go with KW colovers...i have them in the V1 setup...love them!!!

 

Be carefull with going too big with the sway bar, RS4 is perfect and a bit on the over done side but its the best one I would say for an A4 as if you go any bigger you get over/under steer

 

If you're looking to just reduce understeer then go with a rear bar only. Frankly, I love the benefits that the h-sports provide (front and rear). On both my B6 A4 and now my B7 not only do they reduce understeer, turn-in is far better AND corners as well as high speed lane changes can be done safely at higher speeds. If you're looking for coilovers, check out Vogtlands - I've got Startup Racing GT's which have slightly higher spring rates than the regular Vogts and they're awesome. BTW, Startup Racing is border friendly. Check out my reviews ...

thank you for the reply's guys. I would have never imagined that an extra few MM would make a big difference for the rear sway bar. For suspension I wanna go with a nice cup-kit that would be just a bit lower then the current sport set up & a tad stiffer!! Any recomended places to get the sway bar installed?

 

Go to Independent Tuning and tell them I sent ya.

Cheers !
