Hi everyone
I've had my Rs turbo for 1,5 year now..
When i bought it, it had standard Rs turbo dampers and was lowered about 40 mm.
I recently had it to an MOT, but i was to low, and the front dampers was rusted away..
Therefore i bought some cheap Monroe escort mk4 dampers, and standard mk4 springs so i could pass the MOT.

The problem now is, that my car looks like a truck with my azev a's on -.-

My question is, Can i lower the car with the dampers i have now? Standard mk4 in the front, and standard rst in the back. Or do i have to get new dampers again??
I know the rst sits lower than the regular mi4, but is there really a Big difference?

Another question is, besides the ride height between the Rst and regular mk4.. Are there any difference between mk4 60mm lowering springs and rst 40mm lowering springs?

Hopefully you Will answer my questions!
Cheers!

 

Standard shocks are fine for the road, I'd get -30mm on the front and -15mm on the rear.
Will sit nice and level then.

 

Thank you for your answer!
So there is no Big difference between, the standard mk4 dampers and the rst ones?
The plan was to buy a 35 or 40 mm lowering spring kit for an rst, but i just wondered if i could do that with standard mk4 dampers in the front

 

I think now aftermarket mk4 parts are all likely going to be the same so even if there was a difference there not a lot you could do about it unless you go direct to fords

I'd buy some good after market danoers and springs like konis or spax
