S3 suspension on Sportback 3.2 quattro?

[Paul_S3]

Does a S3 sportback suspension Dampers and springs fit on a 3.2 sportback model?

thanks

yep should bolt straight on

 

[FranA3]

they should bolt on yes but there is a very big but here they might not be the right spring rate for the heavier v6 engine as the s3 is a 4 cylinder i would phone some suspension specalists first before you do anything just advice follow it or not its just advice

I agree the rear should be ok i think but the front will be a no go due to the weight difference

 

[akash_sky1]

Think the front weight difference will be too much, the 3.2 front axle load could be about 80-100 kgs more I think.

 

[jungleman]

ah i didnt think of that, yea can see the weight being a real issue.... will save on lowering springs tho haha

S-line dampers are different as well....
