Got some comparison pics for those who currently run a normal cupra setup but are wanting to change to the LCR/S3 style setup.
To do the conversion you will need:
1. LCR/S3 wishbones (larger cast ones requiring different size bushes to cupra)
2. LCR/S3 or uprated in these style front anti roll bar
3. Droplinks to suit
4. Struts with brackets to attach to droplinks instead of to wishbone like cupra (many aftermarket coilovers have these even if for the cupra)
5.Hubs - There are two different types dependant on the age of the car
Older cars have hubs that have nuts like below
The newer style have an allen bolt fitting like this
Make sure that the type of hubs you have match the the style of the LCR/S3 hubs or you will need to change the driveshafts to suit these.
Since i had the chance i thought i'd get a few pics for reference for those who intend doing it
