What's the difference with 20VT shock? Do they have one length but different lower mount (to pillar)?

I'm choosing a fully track fronts (rears will be custom), and there are much more options for Delta.

Hard to find a kit where you can buy only front coilovers separetly (((


Sorry if it's been discussed already.

So it's all about lower mount (to pillar). All other dimensions are the same?

Thanks!

The racing programs of KW or H&R offer decent but pricy suspension options for serious racing for the coupe.
If you are looking for an economical solution, check out the GAZ kit offered by BMS. With these options, you should get along without a modification of the rear..

..also heard that with minor modifications, you can install an Alfa (155, GTV??) front suspension..

Hope that helps..

P.S. What mods so you plan at the rear axle ???

1) There are no difference between Coupes and 155 front susp. GTV has a completely another system (double wishbone I believe).

2) I tried to reach KW for some info about smth more serious than KW Var 2 (tried it on Coupe - very civil kit, not for a track), but with no success.

3) I'm planning to convert my rear to McPherson similar to front but with multiple rods (like on Fiar Croma or Delta Integrale).

Look here

http://www.kwsuspension.de/pdf/kw_racing_catalog.pdf

On page 19, you'll find the Fiat range..

In the legend, they also say that a coilover mod for the rear is possible...
