the difference in the way the two drove was huge
the first car was spry and nimble and really "light on it's feet"
second car was a slug
I think maybe the cars got different springs at the order point of "base power group"
which would make sense with a 72 pound 16 way driver's seat
turbo z's also sit about 1 inch lower than a shelby z or any daytonas that came after them
(shelby z suspension swap raised my car)
