The H&R Race Spring Kit for the Volkswagen Golf and Jetta MK3 VR6 (model years 1993 to 1998) is a high-performance suspension upgrade designed for enthusiasts seeking enhanced handling and aggressive styling. Crafted from high-quality materials and manufactured under ISO 9001 certification, these race springs are engineered to improve vehicle control by lowering the ride height and optimizing weight distribution. The springs help reduce body roll and improve responsiveness, making them ideal for track days or spirited driving. Their robust construction ensures durability and consistent performance under demanding conditions, providing a significant upgrade over stock suspension components.

Designed specifically for 1993-1998 Volkswagen Golf MK3 and Jetta MK3 VR6 models, these springs are a direct replacement for factory units. They are suitable for street and track use, offering a lowered stance that enhances both appearance and handling. Installation involves replacing the original springs with these race springs, which are compatible with the stock suspension setup. The kit includes the necessary springs, and no additional modifications are typically required. These springs are perfect for drivers looking to maximize their vehicle’s performance and cornering capabilities while maintaining a reliable, bolt-on installation.

Overview

H&R Race Springs for your 1993-1998 Volkswagen Golf (MK3/VR6) are designed for high performance drivers who want the most out of their vehicles. When the need for uncompromised handling performance becomes a priority, H&R Race Springs will provide over-the-top race ready performance and appearance. They help balance vehicle weight for improved performance and control, while lowering the center of gravity.

Every spring produced by H&R comes from the H&R ISO 9001 certified engineering and manufacturing facility in Germany. All H&R springs are produced from a special 54SiCr6 spring steel, which has strength rated at 290,000 psi resulting in unrivaled tensile strength and resiliency.

Note: A camber-adjusting device like H&R Triple C Camber Adjustment Bolts may be necessary to remove excess negative camber, ensure longer tire life, and obtain the highest level of vehicle performance.
