I know the shocks/struts and coils all transfer right over, but I was wondering about the upgraded sway bars that come with the sport suspension. Ive found a complete take off sports suspension that includes the front and rear sway bars and I just wanted to confirm that it will transfer right over and bolt up without ANY modifications to the sway bar, sway bar links mounts etc. Can anybody confirm for me? Thanks - Josh

I dont think there is a huge difference between sport and non sport swaybar wise. Starting off with a bigger rear swaybar would be best. The M cars have those or aftermarket. Everything is bolt in, of course bigger sway will have bigger bushings other than that plug and play

Is there a "Sport non-Active Suspension"?

Don't think there is such a thing unless the set up is all aftermarket. I think all stock sport suspension comes with ARS too.

That's what my first thought when I saw the thread last night. I've never read anything here about people transferring the entire sport suspension system from one car to another.
