Default 6Th Gen Question

im sure this wuestion has been asked before a million times, but i couldn't find any answers by doinga search.

On the 6 gen Accords is their a difference in the suspension's ?

i know the bolt patterns are different, vbut are the springs and shocks used the same ?

So would it be possible to take springs from the V6 and use them in the 4 cylinder ?

Reason I ask is I want to lower my car about an inch to 1.5 inch. And im not sure if i want the full drop provided by HR sports for the 4 cyl, So im thinking that if i use the stiffer V6 springs it will give me a slight drop, but not as much as the ones for the 4 cyl.

they share the same design with the v6 accord and the tl, tls, cl, cls
BUT the spring is design with for the heavier c series so, the spring will NOT sit right.
however the swaybar off a tl can be use in four cylinder without much problem

yeah the front springs are stiffer but the rears are the same. so you'll end up with this weird nose in the air look.
