Hi all:

im wanting to put stock springs from an 02gt convertible on my current 93gt.
the stock springs from a 93gt and 02gt vert. have the same heigth, diameter and thickness. the dealer said they will fit but ride height will be about 'inch & half" higher than stock.
is this true, any advice or stats. on the weight of both cars.
*my car is lowered right now, and im wanting to go back to stock ride*

thanx. all

The easiest is to put them in and try them. Install, reassemble enough to get it on the ground on the wheels, bouce it a bunch and look at it or measure it. If it is too high, take the springs out and cut a half coil, and repeat. Cut a quarter coil the second time and after.

Measure the ride height to the top of the fender before and after.

Not sure the vert springs are any different than Gt springs.
