Koni Suspension - 16v Golf and Possibly 16v Corrado

[87 Jetta 16v 0]

Hi all,

 

I have a set of matching koni dampers and springs for a mk2 16v golf. These will also phsically fit a corrado, though they would be more suited to a 16v. Potentially an issue with the rear ride height as pointed out below. All in good working condition. Cosmetically they look a little grubby but they always do. Would make a nice fast road / track setup. I would like £100 for these, collected from Reading.

 

Thanks for looking,

 

N.

Are these for a Mk2 Golf? I assume so seeing no mk2 Corrado exists. Also if they are golf then the rear springs will mean a Corrado sits high. Despite that I am interested for my Mk2. Are they adjustable as I can't make out the pictures on my phone.

might mean the difference in spec C's, ie the 89-91 and the 92-96 differences... just a guess though as none of the suspension differs

He has the same advert on ed38 advertised for Mk2 golfs and jettas so that answers that question.

Hi there,

 

Working from my old and deteriorating memory, I thought that Mk2 golf 16v and 4 stud 16v corrado's ran the same springs / dampers? The koni website is inconclusive as no springs are listed for the corrado, and the only suspension kit is for a VR.

 

The spring platform is adjustable on the rear shocks, held in place by a circlip by the look of things. The dampers are not adjustable.

 

Let me know if that helps at all,

 

Thanks,

 

Neal.

Hi Neal, I know from experience from swapping a coilover kit from a Mk2 Golf to a Corrado, this made the rear of the corrado sit high. I have done it on both a 16v and a G60 and the same thing occurred.

 

Let me have a think, is postage an option at all?

Hello mate,

 

Thanks for your experience there. Postage would not be a problem if you needed it.

 

Thanks,
