question re CR
I have not driven a CR, but, I just went from a MY07 to a MY09. I do feel a difference in the suspension, more than I thought I would. So, I would guess that the CR would feel very different from the standard S.
Changes from MY07 to MY08 (same as MY09):
Standard S Suspension & chassis:
- revised spring and damper tuning "that subtly influences steering feel and high speed vehicle behavior".
- Coil springs - Front: Stiffer by 7%, Rear: Stiffer by 9% (from 2007 spec)
- Dampers - Front: Damping Force Increased 10%, Rear: Damping Force Increased 5% (from 2007 spec)
- Satbilizer bars - Front from 26.5 x t4.5 (2007) to 27.2 x t5.3. Rear has no change
CR Suspension & chassis:
- Coil springs - Fronts stiffer by 37%, rears stiffer by 17% than normal 2008 S2k
- Mono-tube, gas-pressurized dampers - Frot increased 50%, rear increased 32% more than normal 2008 S2k
- Rear body brace where soft top used to fold
BTW: For those with suspension like the MY07, I highly recommend the CR front sway bar.
