I'd love someone to clear this up for once and for all, I have searched countless forums finding nothing that really clarifies the question for me (being a dumb dumb!) :scratch_one-s_head:

 

GC8 front suspension will directly bolt into GDA?

GC8 Rear suspension will bold into GDA provided the top hat is changed to GDA top?

 

Reason I'm asking is there is rather slim pickings for GDA coilovers where as GC8 coils seem to be coming out of every crackle in the interwebs.

Similar to trying to find 5x100 over 5x114.2 wheels

You will also have a issuse with the brake like, one bolts to the shock the other uses a U clip, same with abs sensor wire.
I ran gc8 stocks in my old bug eye at one stage so know 1st hand.
