Hey guys I was wonder if it was possible to change the v6 springs with GT PP springs? Will I need to change anything else with the suspension or is it just a simple swap? Thanks.

Thank you. I was just concerned that something would be different on the V6.

I forgot to ask, do the PP springs make the car sit lower than non-PP Springs? I'm not really into lowered cars.

Nope.

Are you sure about that? I don't honestly know one way or another but I was definitely under the impression that the GT PP springs sat a bit lower than the non-PP GT. I have a non-PP GT myself and have been considering getting springs. With my 20" Foundry wheels and 275/35/20 tires, there's not a ton of wheel gap but I still wouldn't mind dropping it just a tiny bit. I was considering the PP springs for this but honestly, with everyone getting rid of them (for some reason), I will probably go a different, aftermarket route.

I know for a fact that the PP springs have a different spring rate than the non-PP, at least on the fronts. Not sure about the rears though...

I think there is a thread somewhere comparing all of the factory and aftermarket suspension options. I'll have to take a look.

You folks are missing the point that the V6 is much lighter than the V8. Putting GT springs on the front of V6 is going to raise the car approximately half an inch.
