ZX2 + ST springs

[rentd]

Are ZX2 struts and Suspension Tech 1,3" springs good to use on MX-3 1,8L V-6?<p>And BTW: what are the diff. between MX-3 GS and RS? Here in Europe aren´t they marked this way. Personally i owe MX-3 Precidia 1,8L V-6. Is that GS or RS?

The GS had the V6, the RS had the 4-cyl. The GS also had the 15" alloys, rear lower tie bar, front air dam, rear spoiler and other niceties. It came as a package. In 1995 (the last year for teh MX-3 in the U.S.) there was no V6, just a 4-cyl, but it looked like a GS.<p>Oh, and I don't know about the springs/struts for sure, but I see no reason why they wouldn't work fine. I know the ZX2 struts are good and will work, and Suspension Techniques is a good brand so it should be fine.<p>[ April 02, 2003: Message edited by: JasonH ]</p>

Thanks all for infos
Hope i can find an on-line store where i can buy all necesary thinks at once Because to send them from diff. shops will be too expensive...

Do those who use this combo, order ST springs for an Mx3 or for the zx2? Also, How much of a gap is left above the tire after installing this combo. I heard the Zx2 strut is about 1/2 shorter, so I assume the drop is about 1.8 inches?

ANSWER: MX-3<p>Also, How much of a gap is left above the tire after installing this combo.
ANSWER: The front is perfect, the rear still has a small gap...but it's noticably lowered. At least that's how it is on mine.<p>

ANSWER: You would think so, but it only seemed to help like ~.3", so i dunno :\.
