Default What parts change with an X73 kit?

I've got a seller on a "apparent" X 73 set It includes only springs and shocks (yellow) assembled with the spring retainers etc. P Part number is said to be 000-044-500-38.

Anyone know what I should be looking for with an X73 kit? Individual shock part numbers? Spring color codes?

Also, does the factory use the same anti-roll bars on the X73 as the do on the base US suspension? Seems a bit od to me.

Any help would be appreciated.

THX.

My X73 suspension parts were yellow. The kit should also include the stiffer motor mounts. No change in the roll bars.

Yep....it has the motor mounts. Why do they change them?

Helps in overall chassis rigidity.

Just dbbl check that you have the turbo kit, I believe -38 was the c4s version...but I could be mixed up!
Get ready for a total transformation of your car!
