do rs have same suspension as a gs-t?

Only difference that I'm aware of between the two is that the GS-T has a rear sway bar where as the RS doesn't. Also the rear control arms on the GS-T are a bit beefier, like they're reinforced and the one's on the RS are kinda hollow. I don't think I described that well... pictures would have worked better. :p

As far as the struts and springs go... yeah no difference. In fact I just took the oem struts and springs from my GS-T and put them on my RS and my koni's and gc coil-overs that were on the RS went to the T. :)
 
there is a difference though.............the sping rates are different on the gst and gsx from the gs and rs.........they have to be because the gst and gsx weigh more........the springs ont he turbo's would have to be stiffer cause of the weight difference of the turbo's and the non-turbo's.........too put it in easier terms........if u put lowering springs from a gsx on too a rs or gs it won't sit as low as it would if u put them on a gsx.........the gsx weighs more so the springs are stiffer than the ones they make for the gs and rs.........the gs or rs doesn't have enough weight to push the springs down for a lowered look........

The man speaks the truth I have AWD springs on my N/T and the rear sits higher but the front is low so its all good and I like to benifit from a stiffer spring rate in the rear cuz the car needs all the help in the rear it can get !
