Ngl I love these types of videos with building cars over times

You’re channel is literally the reason I bought a mk7 gti thanks so for the vids!! 🤙🏾

I’m loving this series! The GTI is looking real good. I’d upgrade the headlights as well.

You gotta upgrade those headlights. The base headlights bring these cars looks down so much!

Just watched all GTI video's on a roll. Great vibe and content!

One of your best edits yet! Straight to business and easy to follow!

Generally a rule of thumb I go for when dialing in preload on the springs, is about a half inch spring compression in the front. Different manufacturers may be different or even come with a preset preload and not recommended to change it. As far as the rear, put the wheel on with a couple bolts....adjust the collars on the spring perch, then jack up the suspension so it's sitting on the suspension and not on the lift as much as you safely can and see where it's at. Trial and error and adjustment....continue to adjust the rear spring perch until you get the height where you want, then roll in the shock in to match the height. The weight of the car is the preload.

That looks so flush and perfect! It sits just right 👌🏼🔥

You are a professional my dude!..love your work. I'm Getty my gti-07 mk5 in 2weeks..love to get these coilovers!!

I’m inspired by your patience and attention to detail.

Such a great video, Cam. The pacing, editing, and information was perfect. Car looks pretty good too ;)

Beautiful fitment! I have that same “Remove before flight” tag on my keychain as well haha

great video, huge help with the height adjustment before install. Thanks!

You can use a 2x4 with a hole to put bolt through and use a jack to lift strut out of the slot and to place new strut in. . Pretty easy and quick

Just commenting to say that I picked up some BC's and was 100% overwhelmed by all the shit on them compared to the ST's on my MK6 and you addressed most of it at 6:11 so thank you.

I love the sound of your exhaust. I need that

Really been enjoying your channel - good stuff!

Instead of taking out the axel, I removed the 3 bolts at the bottom of the control arm and pushed down on the control arm and lifted the ball joint bolts up off the control arm. That way I didn’t have to take out the axel.

This was a dope video. Chilled and informative

Just upgraded to BC's on my car today!

I look forward to your videos every week

Love your videos man! I had a 2016 GTI Autobahn up until today when i rear ended another car at 45mph. Now im a former gri owner! I had a dp and tune ready but not anymore.

Nice build you got going on here man.

Yes Finally!🤘🏻 keep it up mate

I enjoyed watching this💯💯 stance nation!!

Good work Cam, thx for the vids

love your content bro 🔥🔥🔥

Looks hella amazing 😻

Hope you did an alignment after the install. I aligned mine after I installed my coils.

Duudeee the gti looks sick bruh

That GTI is sitting good bro

Looks dope man

Feening for the subie!! 🔥🔥

Every time cam posts a video he gets another 1k subs

Anyone else heavily relying on Cams videos for their gti due to the lack of good gti content everywhere else on KZfaq?

So the camber adjustment on the top hat can’t be adjusted while installed in the car? 🙂

Love ur content i am doing a lot of unitronic mods on my mk5

Ga i wanna do this so much to my GTI. But the thought of having to buy all those specific tools. I think i'll just look into a shop doing it for me.

Great video, but there is no need to loosen the driveshaft to swap out front shocks

Hi I’m az also hope to see you at a local meet one of these days

Dude, thank you.

Great video

12 point Allen head sockets or "triple squares" are a must have for most if not all euro cars. Especially the German ones, and ESPECIALLY anything from VW Group. Which at this point is basically everything. Cause VW owns it all almost.

wow imagine living in a place where you can have a hoist outside.. Greetings from the great white north lol

Do you know what the final measurements were for that ride height?

Hey I just wanted to ask about what you think of Ksport as a brand. I know you’ve put them on all of your cars and because of you I am looking at a set for my mk6 GTI. Just wanted to know how they have held up for you over time and if you have had any other issues with these coil overs.

So what happens to the dampening system between sports and other modes? Assuming that no longer works? It's why I'm not lowering mine.

Yep. The rotors are legit.

good I saw that you have the ofroad activated on the radio, how did you do it? I already have it activated and it doesn't appear in the list on the radio

You should do a turbo civic In the future that would be fun to watch

Crazy content back to back like drake 🤯

YESSSS LETS GOOO!!!

Was gonna go with BC coilovers but you made me choose the Ksports, they’re like $300 cheaper and if you picked them they must be good quality

Just installed lower springs on my R. Went right into it without knowing u need a 12 point spline bit socket I just used 6 point torx, definitely not recommended but is possible with minor damage to bolts.

recommend your coilovers

Wouldn’t you need to do an alignment after putting on a coilover kit? I bought the same kit and I was just wondering if you need an alignment after putting them on

Love your chilled videos! I have a question regarding the new R. If I install coil overs will that mess up the R’s Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) variable suspension settings? Provides a choice of Normal, Comfort or Sport modes. Using the digital slider via the infotainments system. I’ve seen the DCC has 15 settings

I can't believe I've installed so many struts without that strut spreader socket... Time to hop on Amazon 👌 Great content Cameron

How are you doing my friend. Do you think I use that coil overs on my Chevrolet Aveo5 2009 ?

Can I camber my wheels with the coilovers or do I need a camber kit too?

Did you keep the spacers on the front? You never got any rubbing?

Should I buy an fa WRX or a GTI for my daily?

What extension is used for the impact

How many inches was the drop? Debating on springs to save some $

Okai to keep stock end links if im planning to lower them all the way?

i put a dogbone mount in my car and now it violetly shakes when moving from a stop but after like 1100 rpm its stops so 800-1100 range

Did u use the stock sway bar end links ?

I'm located in cave Creek area. looking for a mk6 or mk7 if I can find one gti coupe. I'll build it up, suspension and bolt ons, any tips other than watching the man himself?

What wheels are those? Size and such with tires please

When u buy them. Is it 1000 for all 4 or is is separate

Where did you get your wheels

is that audi rs rims ?

I swear u neva lied.. I lowered my Dodge Charger one inch and no one could figure out why they looked so good on the wheels. Just one inch

As you know I’ve been with you since the extreme early days. But I am just amazed at how far your confidence and ability have come with every new video.

Are those Audi wheels forged or cast?

How are these after a year

Which rims are these

Torque spec for the rear suspension???

do you go to alot of car meets ?

when it comes to the gti's with dynamic chassis control, do you have to get a dcc cancelation kit to run any aftermarket coilovers?

What year GTI is this?

I have the DCC and all my options are too expensive:( and I’m not a fan of bypassing the DCC

Sheeeeeeeeesh

Ponele los centros de VW a las llantas !!!

Good video, but u should use new hardware and top hats cause there stretch bolts.

can u black it out

coilovers are the first mod anyone should do

this vid is making me nervous about how I installed my coils and adjusted the rear height

Some job that was not sure that I got the guts for that 😅

Why do those top bolts look like hardware store bolts? I hope it’s not low tensile hardware bolts haha you’d have a bolt sheer pretty quickly at the worst possible time.

The core of your rear shock absorber is wrong,About 1 week after the new coilover is installed, the rear body will be lowered by about 0.5-1 inches

It’s called preload

Mom: Why is there a flesh light under your bed. nah its not a flesh light its a shock cover 14:12

What feels faster your focus or the gti?

you should put never seize on those adjusters,aluminum can gall

rear sway bar

Brother u got a plastic oil pan get a street shield asap I destroyed mine on my gli w a turtle and it was a steel pan imagine what can happen to urs🥲 also get a street shield from ECS

21:20 hahaha

Why did you pick cheap coilovers on a youtuber/sponsorship build?

Your explanation of adjusting ride height based on measuring the shocks/springs is 100% not how that works at all btw. A factory spring could be 20 inches tall compared to an aftermarket spring being let’s say 15 inches can produce the same ride height. It’s all about how the spring is designed and what the spring rate is. Following the directions from the manufacturer is always the best way to do things. Also the two upper lock rings you were talking about adjust the “preload” of the springs. You’re not changing the spring rate. It’s just putting tension on the spring so that it can’t unseat itself if you’re driving the car hard and the shock unloads. Like going over a bump fast. In the split second you’re coming down from the bump and your suspension unloads the spring can slip out of its position from under the top hat and bind up when the suspension settles back down.
