I'm getting real old with a bad back and some nasty hemorrhoids (just a slight exaggeration), so I want to put my suspension back to stock or at least soften it up a bit. I was at the junkyard today and I found a 95 Si.
Anyone know if the stock Si suspension is any stiffer than that of the other models? Is the ride height the same?

The height is exactly the same as far as I know.

Did a side by side comparison. The Si rear springs are coiled noticeably looser than the coupes. Probably not as stiff due to less weight of the hatchback. But I don't want to get the coupe springs on a static height strut because it will probably jack the rear end up.
Today is 50% off day so I'm going to go ahead and get the stock suspension. I haven't decided whether or not to sell my Tokico RAK kit or whether I've lost my damn mind or not.
