      Might be a bit of a stupid question but before I started getting some parts together from ECS, there's no difference between a 1.8t and a 1.6 when it comes to the running gear is there? Like suspension and braking and steering?

        Brakes are different. 1.8t runs 288mm discs standard whereas 1.6 runs 256mm - carriers are integrated into the hub on a 1.6 as well so you'd run into problems trying to fit a larger disc.

        Suspension refresh is the same kit from memory.

          Ah thankyou and do you think a steering refresh kit would fit with the tie rods and whatnot?
