No just me being lazy and a bit hopeful that one for a mk4 would fit a mk2, have made my own out of 2.5" mild

Will be fitting 288mm vr6 brakes this weekend, going to keep the mk2 subframe an arms so it wont be wide track, just need to sort out some front shocks as my bilsteins have gone mushy and then it can be certified

It has a bilstein suspension kit in it and the front shocks need rebuilding/replacing, replace them or get a set of coilovers? A pair of bilsteins will cost me $585 from demon-tweeks or a set of kw v1 for $1030, not to sure on the quality of the cheap coilovers tho and the bilstein kit drove realy nicely befor the fronts went mushy

You can get the billies rebuilt for about $160 each. Do that.
The end is nigh, but the end of what is the question?
