Post by: stainesy on 13 July 2011, 21:56

ok what i want to no is what is the diferance between a normal mk3 golf suspension and a gti,s
as i have perswaded my mate to buy a mk3 1.4 and i have my standered gti suspension in my garage from when i fitted my coilovers. can i just put my springs or shox strait onto his car? are the only diferances the coil and shox?

Think they mount exactly the same so that shouldnt be an issue. GTI suspension setup is 15mm lower than standard I believe. (or is it 10mm).  :undecided:

Yes or just the complete GTI shocks / springs.
