manilasuperstar Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 it may Sound funny,but ive seen ads of coilovers specifically for gti;s and non gti;s..or for 3l only ,,so whats the difference if there is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadmetal Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 It'll most likely be to do with springs rates and mounting points.The 3l will be lighter, so will want softer springs and I think the GTi has slightly different mounting points on the front.

davidelliott294 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 They don't have different mount points, it's just the spring rates that are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jon_273 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 GTI's have a wider front track, which means the mounting point for the bottom of the coilover (on the hub) is further out (closer to you as you look at it) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
