   Im thinknig of buying the complete rear beam and front struts from an early vtr on a R plate. im not sure but are the early vtr beams different to the later ones? if so whats the difference?
   
   The parts will be going on an Ax Gti that im pretty sure it doesnt have abs.
   
   Thanks

   the beams are the same up until the very latest vts's which don't have a brake bias valve. pretty sure there isn't a difference otherwise.

   i ment to put vtr beam in the title not vts.
   so are all the older vtr beams the same including the brakes ect??
   is £200 a good preice for complete rear beam handbrake and complete front struts if there in good condition?

   i would say that's a decent price, i paid £170 for a ream beam alone. pretty much certain vtr beams are all the same.
