Күн бұрынAfter tuning Keith's Amarok to 400bhp, the stock suspension and brakes weren't to his satisfaction. We teamed up with the guys at Bilstein suspension to develop a complete unique lowering kit as well as our own Audi RS 6 Pot brake kit!
See how they performed on track here:

Amaroks are actually really good to drive, even when stock. I alwayd get a big smile on my face when driving one.

@@DarksideDevelopments I'm just about to collect a 3.2 ranger this week, might have a shop about for an anti roll bar for that, chances are it may have a bit of weight in the back from time to time, ie building materials. Wanted a car, needed a van, trucks a compromise, I would like to corner a little flatter! Edit: might add a few little personal touches to it, shame we can't get the stuff here they can in other places around the globe, like the rgb mustang lights and things, or we might be able to and I just haven't looked hard enough, first port of call is the remap and Air filter I think.

dude I have an amarok 2L TDI but find it hard and shaky, no comfort driving and every body get tired in there after 2h trip max.... I know I had to buy an SUV, but now its done! I'll stick with it as it fits me the open big cargo bed... I'm electrician so this is also my commercial and my family vehicle . I don't carry heavy loads max 500kg very rare. I drive it 90% on road and I do not enjoy off roading. Sometimes driving on beach sand about 6-700m until finding a spot for swimming. That's all its use! So I need a soft suspension compensating ride for smooth comfort trips. I know solid back axles are not so comfort by mechanical nature, but I want to make as comfort and soft as it gets. Do you have some suspension kit to sugest me? Thanks.
@DarksideDevelopments Жыл бұрын
All of the suspension options we have will be similar or firmer than factory. You could try removing the rear leaf spring helps and see if this suits you better
