      Actually they don't but the generic B4 or typ89q kit should fit a treat.

      P/N for B4q type is 29 491 - 2
      t89q type 29 503 - 2

      One problem with the kits could be that they probably want your old struts in exhange and the fronts are different in S cars as you most probably all know.

      Edit: Notice that t89 strut bolts change to M14 for MY92. MY91 still has M12.

        Hi Sorry my car is a 89 Audi 90Q saloon so That shouldnt be an issue for me. They list it as for the non-sport version only. I am a little confused as to why that makes a difference if I'm getting a complete kit. It might be the lack of rear anti roll bar. I agree with porkkis though. I can't see it not fitting an S2.

            Worth it if you're planning on track days etc. but can't see coilovers liking the wonderful British roads! And I'd hazzard a guess that it'll eat top mounts too if you go too stiff! Not much experience with Audis, only VWs, but a bit of work would make your beast handle beautifully, you'd just have to put up with it being a little skittish on crap roads! Will certainly help confuse a few more Scooby drivers!

              I agree, Sal has coilovers on his, then after about a month or so they were up for sale.

                Birmingham roads mate, if H&R were too hard coilovers rattled the fillings!

                  Yep the sports suspension option means there are rear arb link mounts. The above number should be the "sport".
