Tried searching some but going to just ask... Anyone ever put CTFP springs on a non CTFP car? Will it work? Will the magnride not like it? Help is appreciated.

I have seen base owners swap all 4 and I’ve also seen them swap just the fronts. There have been no reports of magneride issues after the swap.

Completely doable. I only did the front swap, but some have done front and rear as Tim said.

is there a reason to do fronts only vs all four?

I wanted the slight rake it gives you. That and the front wheel gap is more than the rear, so it also equals that out.

I did just front. Car sits perfectly level now. I will say you have to be careful. I do tend to drag rather easily on entrance and/or exit on uneven pavement. Not sure it would be much different without them. It's only about a 1/4" difference. Stance is def better though! I've had zero issues with magnaride.

Epiphany’s link will provide all the info needed to convert a Base GT500 to CFTP springs (which I did).
If you are asking about using them on your GT, the CFTP rear springs will not work as they are counter-wound so they won’t seat in the lower perch.
The front of a GT500 is MUCH heavier than a GT, so those springs will likely raise the height of a GT….
Steeda makes great lowering springs which I use on my GT350.
