R3 Suspension
What's going on guys? I don't post here much so excuse my intrusion into the land o' RX8. I've tried using the search bar but honestly wasn't sure how to phrase what I was looking for. I've tried "R3 Suspension" and "R3 Suspension on S2" but there were just way too many topics to sort through and most of which didn't contain my keywords in the title.
So hopefully a quick answer for a quick question.
Question -- I'm an OEM+ kind of guy. I have a 2009 Touring Six Speed. Well kept car, 52,000 miles on it, have only put around 2000 miles on it since last April (if not less). I'd like to just swap the suspension with the R3 suspension (Bilstein struts and springs). Would this be worth the time and effort? I've seen some sets of all 4 go for $200, even on this forum at times. I'm not sure of ride height - any difference between the R3 and standard suspensions? Can't seem to pin point any hard details on this.
Thanks in advance.
