Default s1\xr3 2 Bolt Top Suspension

Some people say you cant put s1\s2 (aftermarket suspension) setups on these as the struts on the 2 bolt setup are shorter.

Does anyone actually know 100% either way or fitted say s1 or s2 koni's using the 2 bolt top plate setup?

Many thanks

Ryan

Aye, Lee , I did see that error when I posted but couldnt be bothered to edit and thught it was quite funny ....

There are a few scattered about on various threads Jim, its the same car Lewis/JasonP / Skedge? (Ithink) bought which is now undergoing trackcar transformation in the resto forum.... I did spend hours scanning and uploading all the pics but I lost em when my comp crashed, maybe Ill do a thread for it one day
