Default Coilover kit: STaSIS vs KONI

Hi, I am looking for coilover for my TT,
I have researched and find alot of different answers.
Some said STaSIS, and other said KONI or H&R...
I saw the STaSIS set is using Koni's Cadmium Plated Adjustable Dampers, Progressive Rate Springs but UHMW Spring Perch Bearings..
here is the link for the StaSIS set


also this

^^I believed these 2 are the same thing...but the image of the products are different..

so STaSIS or KONI(part#1150 5057)??

Thanks!

Has anyone here used VMAXX coilovers? They're much cheaper, might be worth checking out.

I heard they are crap though.
my friend has a jetta (golf4 chassis) and killed them in 6 months.

Oh really? Does he have any idea what shocks and struts they use?
Also how low was his setup and ride quality?

no idea on the components,
it was pretty low and pretty uncomfortable for a jetta.
i'd say it was lowered 1.5-2 inches?

yea my friend put them on his jetta too... i agree with the lower by 1.5-2'.... i know you can not adjust dampening with them either... he has had his for about a month or two but says they dont feel like they used to

Some people really like vmaxx.

I just ordered a pair. I'm not going to be doing any auto-xing so I really have no need for full dampening $1500 coilovers. I'll leave the sway bars and maybe a rear strut brace to increase my handling. Plus I have a non-recalled TT so mine handles better than most of yours anyways. =P
