Will a suspension kit for a 1.6 16v Si fit on my 1.8 16v Xr2i?

doubt it,

si is mk 3.5 as the xr2i is a mk3.

the suspension setup is differnt as mk3.5s are harder to lower aparently.

not 100% sure though.

i would of thought the easiest way to check is look in a performance mag and see if the 2 cars are listed under the same spring set should be easy to do lol :Q
