Default 1.8t on 2.8 (just need quick answer)

I just need a quick answer before i buy these springs from a member on here. Will the 2002 1.8t quattro springs fit on a 2000 2.8 quattro at all?

They will fit, but they are not matched up for your car. the 2.8 has a lot more weight on the front end because the engine is heavier.

So, the springs/shocks may not be stiff enough for that car.

b6 springs on a b5. I don't think they'll fit. But even if they do like ace said the spring rates are different so you might wanna get springs that are specified for your car.

I see, I am thinking of the DBW vs NDBW. Yes, b5 goes to 2001.5.
