Super Strut - AE101 and AE111

Postby skynets » Thu Jul 13, 2006 8:39 am

Hi Guys, anyone know if the super strut suspension is interchangable between a AE101 GT Apex Super Strut and a AE111 BZG Super Strut or vice versa?

Currently looking for parts to replace my worned super strut suspension on my AE101. Found a super strut suspension for AE111 but don't know if they can fit in.

I had to replace my superstrut on my AE111 BZ-G. The lower arms I had were from an AE101 and were way different, so wouldn't fit at all. The short arm however is the same with both models and was what had worn out on my car. I just took the short arm off and put that in my car.

They're damned expensive too :(

Macpherson is the way to go.

Superstrut is poo.
