Are parts from these two car interchangeable?

in the long term i'm looking to lower my vRS on springs and shocks. but the 40mm ones that are commonly available won't go far enough to get it sitting how i would like. but spax do 50mm springs for the polo 1.9tdi, would they be likely to fit?

the sump will hit the speed bumps if you go really low

In theory they should fit.

And as for the sump... the VR6 sump is very low and my car's low, no issue yet!

Does any one have any pics of how a PD130 sump sits?

Im on spax 50mm and its very low. getting up kerbs is a nightmare and i scrape on speed bumps. undertray only. no sump action yet but believe me when i say the ride is very very bouncy and harsh

you can see the undertray underneath

Bouncy and harsh is just Spax though...

How about one of these sumps, gives more grond clearance- PSI Tuning> Main Section > Golf > Golf Mk4 1998-2004 > Engine > 1.8t shallow sump

cheers for the heads up. are you just on standard shocks though? coming from a seat arosa, almost any part was interchangeable with those from a lupo. i hoped it would be the case here.

ideally i'd want to go for coilovers, but if was going to do it i'd want to do it right and get KW's at £500 odd quid. and i dont want to go that low. just get rid out the stupid arch gap

Yes im on standard shocks for now but i do remember a thread where i think TaylorHawkins has the same springs but with koni adjustable shocks and said the ride was still under par

This is going off memory though
