do coilovers off a 205 fit onto a 306 without any adapting? ie is the droplink bracket in the same position?

tbh its the droplink tab that seems to be the headache, im goin to build the car in order to do some tarmac rallies and night events, are there any ways around it, does the arb off a 309 fit a 306 or are there droplinks from another car that may fit?

If your doing that then 205 Dampers will be well under rated, you've got another 50 odd KG's at the front.

i did have a 309 gti so im hoping to get as many of the parts to swap over. its one of the main reasons im lookin into a 306 as there newer and a fair bit quicker, i know alot of my other parts will bolt on but the droplinks are the only obstical
