MR2 Suspension? Are they all the same?
I was wondering if the MR2 suspension between rev1 and rev4 is the same, and if so can i fit rev 3 suspension to my rev1 NA?
Re: MR2 Suspension? Are they all the same?
i think N/A and turbo suspension differs other than that i think you can pretty much just do a straight swap.
hope someone can confirm that though ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

The change from type I
& II to the Type III
(oct 1993 upwards) saw some changes in the turbo mr2 suspension.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

The strut housings and mounts are the same for all years.
The springs and the actual shocks vary from na/turbo and year to year.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

The suspension changes in 93 do not affect the actual strut mounting points.
Just a shorter spring, slightly different geometry in the rear
(different rear crossmember and links to it) and a different method of connecting the strut rods in the front.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
