Have a spare motor with 100xxx on it. Plan to do a turbo set and swap. The orginal motor has 230xxx on the clock and running strong but poorly taken care of. Also coilover shocks all the way around.

What are your suspension plans to run the coilovers? In stock form coilovers won't do much for you except possibly give you a bit of added payload in the rear if you crank them up a bit. I don't even know that you can fit coilovers up front without some fabrication since there just isn't room to fit them.

Coilover shocks are for daily driving and lil comfort. No plans to lift it any higher then is it.coilover will with in channel judt fin and bolt up. I seen some do a empi swap with vw coilovers. I might grab a set of long travel but no plans for off roading yet....
