Pro5 springs/struts on a sedan?

[shootz]

What would happen w/ Pro5 springs/struts on a sedan? I have a 2001 sedan that I want to return to stock. I have tien ss dampers on it now. I have a way to get some Pro5 stock suspension for dirt cheap. Any idea how the car would sit? Please let me know, thanks!

One last thing.. I have an extra set of MP3 springs if that would help in putting suspension stuff together.... thoughts?

it would be messed up with the p5 suspension cuz the p5 is alot heavier in the back.. i say leave that s*** how it is

pretty sure the back would be higher than stock if you installed the p5 rear setup on a sedan

This has been done many times. Many people put P5 springs on the protege sedans and the MP3, which I did. I installed espiler springs (which are technically only for the P5) on my MP3, and it looks great and handles awesome. But, the rear does have a little larger gap then the front, maybe 1/4 of an inch difference. I think aftermarket struts are the same for both, but I'm not sure.

The MP3 springs themselves are very good performance wise. The only thing is that there is a larger wheel gap in the front then the rear. That is why I switched to espiler springs, in order to lower the front. After looking around for info for about 2 week I came to the conclusion that the best setup for both performance, looks, and price is the espiler springs with tokico struts (either the blues or illuminas)

did it on my moms 2000 dx. might raise it a little bit, but it looks like a 4X4 anyways with the stock suspension

struts are the same.
Springs may be slightly stiffer (tiny amount) and may make it slightly higher.
Take the rear spring pads out and it should even it out.
