Hello all,

I picked up a 1994 Golf (2 door, no sunroof, roll-up windows) to turn into an ITB car. I'm looking at a slow build, driving it around, auto-xing, and some track days as I build over the course of 1-??? years. No hurry, I enjoy both building and driving. It won't be a daily driver either, so daily comfort isn't a concern.



First off, I'm looking at buying a suspension. I have the money for a set of Koni Sports, Ground Control coilover kit and related suspension bits.

Are the above parts acceptable??? I was thinking 500# front and 450# rear spring rates. This info is from the 'net, so I'm not sure...I do need a starting point, however. (I believe the koni's will have to be revalved eventually.)

Next, I'd like some general links regarding cars, mods, etc.

I have some of the common links that pop up on this board from time to time, as well as the SCCA GCR and IT rules, but I'm new to VW's so anything might help.

One more Q: To remove the a/c I'll just need the non-ac drive belt, right???

I'll have a new tig welder soon and hope to be fabbing many of the necessary items.

Thanks a bunch,

James
