Ride is also different. I think ride height is same. I know they both have
exactly same suspension configuration with different alignment angle as
far as both cars have ABS but ride is totally differnt on my case.
87 Turbo has firm and great handling, little harsh on the freeway with bad
road surface, but my 87 STX V6 has very cushy, soft ride more like earler
ZN6s and handling is not up to the Turbos. Well I guess there are all
kinds of variations of STX. I also saw a STI V6. What's the difference?
anyone?
taejin, park
ps. Thanks for everyone for helping me clear up my inventory and solve my
short of cash problem. Good news is that I just sold my 89 Turbo Wagon. I
may have a new set of European headlight for sale. Stay tuned for more
details. Thanks.
