CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted October 28, 2006 yes but the springs will need to be changed up front Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bups 0 Posted October 30, 2006 Thanks for the reply, was just wondering, can i just buy the springs from AVO? And are these a direct replacement? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boy bernard 0 Posted October 30, 2006 Sorry to post jack, but will mk3 coilovers fit a Corrado as well? I've noticed a few sellers suggesting they are interchangable. Thanks in advance Bernie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catch_twotwo 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Weights are different across the range so I doubt you'll get an exact swap. If they do a different set of coilovers with a different reference number then it's for a reason. You might be able to get the springs changed, but for the cost and hassle you might as well go for a decent kit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bups 0 Posted October 31, 2006 Gave AVO a call yesterday, they said that the coilovers are the same for 16v mk2 and a vr Corrado although i will need to change the springs on the front because of the weight of the engines, think they said they were £33 each..
