Default v6 suspension upgrade.

Would a steeda, or saleen, suspension setup be compatible with the v6? I'm not an expert with this stuff, so I don't know if it would make a diffrence or not?

Me wonders same thing. Heres my question whats the weight difference in the front ends of the V8 vs V6? If it's significant it could cause an ill handling vehicle. The parts would fit though, also if the V6 is much lighter the front wont drop as much obviously. The heavier the car the higher the spring rate needed. If the spring rates too high in the front the V6 would create a push and would need some rear sway bar modifications in order to get a good balance out of the car again probably.
