Considerind taking Speedwell off of life support and donoring the vitals into a relatively race ready '84 Bunny. These questions arise:

1) Did the '84 Rabbit come equipped with solid or vented front rotors?
2) The GCR spec line shows a 5 speed - I suppose a 4 speed is illegal, si?
3) Is this chassis a quantum leap (theoretically speaking) above my '79, handling wise?
4) Is there any chassis differences between an '84 Rabbit and the GTI? The GTI has the 1.8L motor and 14" wheels, but what else?
