For that price you could grab some reasonably priced coils and an install kit. A day in the drive way and lot of Youtube and you're good to go my friend!
Afaik the rear beam suspension was only in the SportWagen's and they use a C shaped beam as a rear "axel" so everything is tied together. Multi link is what it says, multiple links instead of a beam. I'm sure @golfdave will be able to tell you the differences in design but I dont think they are...
Going to a SMF helps a bunch, i used to hate how slowly my car gained/lossed revs when shifting etc so I tried all the basics and it didn't seem to do anything. Just a stage 2 daily clutch from South bend made the biggest difference.
It's been done and you do get a bit of lowering but it's a lot of work for a tiny change, especially considering the huge range of coil over options for our platforms.
Same thing with switches and levers here, I always thought it was cool that I had that same turn signal stalk in my E30 that they used in the Mclaren F1!
Axle bolts, LCA nuts, and engine cradle bolts? (3 different ones from a list on here). My car already has BFI mounts all around so that hardware is reusable. Should be good, i think.
Much like any enthusiast car, the highly optioned oddly spec'd cars will be worth more in a general sense of the word, but it'll be a while until they are "rare" or special in anyway.
That's kind of where I was going. I got a turbo blanket thinking it would help, it does as long as you're moving, but sitting is sitting and the air does get warmer.
I had this exact same problem, i replaced the camera with a knock off and it still happened, I'm thinking there's a short in the harness that goes through the hatch, for me at least.
Basically now I just lift off a tiny bit sooner if I'm approaching the end of a long straight, not the best but it's better than that cruise control feeling after lift off lol
I've had my APR S1 91Oct tune for about 6months or so and I've definitely noticed the lift off surge. I haven't changed my WG, but I changed my diverter valve a little bit ago but that did nothing. It really only happens after boosting for a while at WOT. I didn't really notice my oil temps drop...
Dropped it off at Metric Autosport in HB for a bunch of crap.

So yeah, should be a good afternoon.
