i was wondering if the st and gt suspensions are the same. im talking about the bottom part of the strut where it bolts on and everything. will the brake line line up like it does for the st?

I know standard ST and GT suspension is the same. I've swapped them out on my car. I think there might be a sports package for the GT that might be different but I doubt if mount points are different.

GTS has solid struts as where the GT and ST are rebuildable... otherwise, they're all the same. GT4 has Superstrut.
