mk2 coilovers on to a mk3
« on: 09 October 2007, 18:09 »
basically ive had enough of my mk2 as it seems to give me so much grief, my dad is selling his 1.4 mk3 golf and im thinking aout buying it, its a very early one on a k plate and the suspension looks much the same as the set up on my mk2, would it be possible to put my coillies from my mk2 on it?

yes, mk2 suspension will fit mk3 as long as you change the top mounts...
