Fabia vRS suspension to a Fabia Classic?

As

It says my son got a 1.2 fabia he wants to fit my old suspension to his car is this poss

or not

Thanks

If nothing else the weight differences between the two (vRS has heavier engine) will cause it to potentially sit funny, plus I imagine handling would be. . . different.

plus I imagine handling would be. . . different.
at best,at worst downright dangerous

simple answer is DON'T DO IT. :)

Go out and buy him a set of 1.2 specific eibach lowering springs. This would give better than vRS handling, a better drop in height, and much safer than using diesel specific suspension.

Thanks for that

How about using the shocks but with new springs will that do..

Thanks

Shocks would be OK if they are in good nick.

I ran my old TDI on eibach pro-kit springs on oem dampers. No problems at all. Now that I know springs are better matched to dampers from the same company, I don't think I would do the same again, but there is nothing wrong with it. When I rescued the eibach springs off my wrecked mk1, I put them straight on to mk2, but on eibach dampers as well which were around £250 (£150 for the springs alone usually)
