I know the GTI lost some equipment over the SX like central locking power mirrors and alloys etc, but were there any mechanical/brake/suspension improvements?

i believe that the brake is slightly bigger.
i don't know if there's any other difference from this.
i've had a GTi before, there's nothing in the car, no p/w,no p/m,no a/c...it has nothing. the a/c makes me sold it, and replaced by the Starlet GT.

No A/C???! Man - you got jipped! I thought A/C was still standard on the GTi? All of the other things are still optional, so basically it's a matter of finding the right one (depends on what the original purchaser optioned in).
And AFAIK the front discs on the GTi were a few mill larger than the earlier series SX. Interior trim was different also.
Try doing a search on the topic.. I know it has been covered a few times, and you might find some things in those previous threads that i can't recall now.

I actually have the car with a owner's manual which states that the A/C is only option for the GTi.
