Default Springs Same For All Markets???

Hi All,

One of my buddies owns a 911 and another owns a GTI, and both had found that their cars had US-spec springs which are slightly taller and softer than the European-spec springs.

It is argued that Porsche and VW optimize their cars' suspensions with the European-spec springs in mind and then drop the US-spec springs in for the US-bound cars. Based on this, both of my friends have purchased the European-spec springs for their cars and are a bit happier with performance and aesthetics.

So...I was just wondering if there are different S2000 springs for its different markets (Japanese, European, US, etc.). Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
