Upgrading your cars suspension with a high-quality kit from ST suspensions is a guaranteed way of not only improving the handling, but also its looks and stance. In the world of Vauxhall tuning the Astra VXR remains one of the most-popular choices, packing a 240bhp 2.0-litre turbo engine, front-wheel-drive and a super affordable price tag. Naturally this makes them the perfect candidate for a coilover upgrade!
What’s more, ST suspensions ensure that every coilover kit is a direct bolt-on replacement allowing them to be fitted quickly and easily with minimal hassle. To show you exactly how easy the process is with an ST suspensions coilover upgrade, Total Vauxhall Magazine in the UK has compiled a step-by-step fitting guide with a little help from Regal Autosport.
Using the ST X coilover system as an upgrade, the entire process from start to finish took just a couple of hours (including removing the old, seized suspension units). With the ST X system installed this Astra VXR was instantly transformed, and with the overall ride height also lowered it looks as good as it goes, too!
