Rpmayne 0 Posted December 1, 2003 I know there is the club gti forum for this sort of question, but seeing that a few of you have gone the same golf to corrado route as me, does anyone know whether springs from a '90 16v gti will fit a '89 8v? I thought the only difference between them is the 20mm lower ride height of the 16v. Just need to make sure. Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
h100vw 0 Posted December 1, 2003 Yeah they all go on. I don't think the 16V is 20mm lower than an 8V though. Gavin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cliveyp 0 Posted December 1, 2003 16V is 10mm lower than the 8V, but be carefull as it may be that the 16v lump is heavier and therfore the front of the 8V would sit high with 16V springs on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted December 1, 2003 They fit but they will not work. I did this and the front would not sit as low as the back. These were Eibach springs. I bought some 8v ones and the car sat level. Apparantley this happens a lot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
