Details

Drop your VW Bora (1J) Saloon 2WD by a fixed 45mm with the Stance+ Lowering Spring Kit. A simple swap with your factory springs delivers a more aggressive stance, sharper handling, and a properly transformed look without the cost or complexity of a full coilover kit. Suitable for the following 4 Cylinder Petrol engine sizes; 1.4, 1.6, 1.6FSi, 1.8, 1.8T and 2.0L.

Progressive winding means the coil rate isn't constant from end to end. The top of the spring uses wider coil spacing for a softer rate, giving you the compliance you want for everyday driving. As the spring compresses under cornering load, the tighter lower coils take over and the rate climbs. The VW Bora gets noticeably less body roll without the harshness you'd expect from a stiffer spring.

Spring rates are set approximately 25-30% above factory, giving your VW Bora (1J) Saloon 2WD a noticeably sportier character without being uncomfortably stiff. Body roll is cut down, steering response sharpens, and the car settles more quickly over bumps. Built from high-tensile chrome silicon steel, shot-peened and powder-coated for durability.

This kit is engineered specifically for the 4 Cylinder Petrol-engined variant of the VW Bora (1J) Saloon 2WD 1998-2005 (1.4, 1.6, 1.6FSi, 1.8, 1.8T, 2.0L). Petrol and Diesel models often have different front-end weights, which means a kit tuned for one won't always give the correct ride height on the other. Always check your engine type before ordering.

For drivers who want the look and the handling improvement without going the full coilover route, the Stance+ Lowering Spring Kit hits the sweet spot. 45mm fixed lowering, progressive coil winding, and a 25-30% increase in spring rate, all working with your factory fit dampers.

A direct swap with your factory springs. Your existing dampers can still be used; no calibration is required. Professional fitting is recommended, and a proper laser alignment must be carried out once the kit is on the car. 1-year warranty as standard.

This Stance+ 45mm Lowering Spring Kit is suitable for: VW Bora (1J) (1998-2005) Saloon. 2WD. Fitted with the following engines: 1.4, 1.6, 1.6FSi, 1.8, 1.8T, 2.0L.
