So, I installed the coilovers yesterday and was able to get everything together except the torque on the top bolts in the front (the guy at Firestone took care of that for me today when I went for the alignment).
One, the suspension is much noisier, is this normal, over rough road? Will this settle over time?
Two, should I have used that rubber gasket piece at the rear that was holding the spring at the bottom? I used the top one.
So far the ride seems fine. It's still softer than my GTi was (had all sorts of suspension stuff on that). I think I need better wheels and tires (on stock now). Then I'll start w/the chassis bars underneath (back to front).
