TT or S3 fron suspension arms
Carrera2RS:
Looking at prices (thanks Edition 30) seems that all the parts new are likely to be £350-400 all in inc VAT.
This is no more expensive than some top mounts :happy2:
Plus the end result in terms of camber will be the same, roll centre much better, 2+kg lighter per corner and include a WALK for caster a far better solution it would seem.

They are mk1 tt cast arms. Look at the rear bush. It is pressed into the arm. mk2 tt/mk5 golfs have the rear bush in a seperate hosing like the WALK.
Carrera2RS:
Yes, sorry for not mentioning that this picture shows Mk1 arms.
The MkII are alloys and shown here very well in this A3 thread http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/new-a3-s3-sportback-8p-chassis/71940-tt-suspension-arms-fitted-my-a3.html

About the TT hubs..
1. Do they fit on a mk5? I tired to figure that out but could not do so :( (the brakes will definitely fit, what about the steering rod?).
2. If they fit will we have to change the wheel bearing (or is it the same - just to let you know there are 2 different hubs and bearings on a mk5 depending on the model/year/engine....; so my guess is that we have to change them also)?
Could you guys post a image with the full TT hubs (I saw the one taken only for the arm pivot).

I have just measured the GTI arms against the TT arms, the TT are shorter than the GTI ones :confused:
GTI
TT
rex:
Interesting... Why do we have more camber and the wheel clearly is pushed out with the TT arms? :confused:
