Are you talking spark plug coil packs or shocks/springs (Coilovers)?

Im sorry, i didnt realize that i made this post very vague. What i mean to say is coilovers. because i know they are the same chassis, they could very well be a completely different drivetrain.


thanks

Yep....What he said.

My tuner suggested one spring rate down due to the slightly less weight, so I went 7/10 as opposed to 8/12.

azaytsev has a spectacular aura aboutazaytsev has a spectacular aura about
I know tt and c4s have the same suspensions but why when you shop for suspension components (coilovers, springs) they list c4/c4s and tt as different parts
here is the example
springs for c4/c4s
http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/p...oducts_id=1704
springs for tt
http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/p...oducts_id=1706
and exactly the same for coilovers

That reminds me of a guy that bought a 996TT. After a couple of years when he had his car serviced he was informed from the mechanic that his car had twin turbos...
