This VW IRS suspension installation may be difficult to impossible as a direct swap. If your Spyder is mid-engine and the VW IRS is rear-engine, it well may not work. I'm in the process of having an IRS Mid-engine Spyder frame built right now by VMC in Hawaiian Gardens California. This will be Gregs first production of one. You may want to contact him...........Bruce

I have a couple of pictures of an IRS spyder that Vintage did in 2004. They used what looks to be the same trailing arm as their swingaxle and added an upper and lower link to locate the suspension side to side.

Any pictures of the new design yet?
