Re: 89 scala suspension
Not wishing to throw a spanner in the works and add confusion, but vw spec'd different springs for different models. I believe the gtx was factory lowered when compared to a 1.6 gt. Springs were certainly marked with different coloured paint blobs to identify spring rates.MRMENDER wrote:There is nothing different re springs to any MK2 Scirocco
I'd buy 4 matching springs if i could in your situation as most aftermarket will be one rate fits all! Also you won't have to do the other 2 in the near future!

Re: 89 scala suspension
The only Scirocco that was lower was the 16v. Agree with changing the springs in pairs, GSF do them for about £18 each.
