a Denotes items salvaged from my dead '83 GTI.
The "new" (year-old, pulled from my GTI) suspension dropped the car almost two inches, and the rides is much better. (pictures are from BEFORE the suspension swap, car is lower now)
Quaiffe short-throw rack installed (with autocrossing in mind), allong with all new tie-rods, poly bushings, and a new ball joint.
I also got the '85 sport seats and lower driver's side seat frame from from a 16v GTI swapped in so now I have height adjust. (pics show the old, non-sport seats)
