Lowered Sport Chassis
 

Lowered Sport Chassis

To determine your code, look for the VIN tag shown below.  You will find it (on 4-door sedans) on the driver's side B-pillar frame at the bottom.  The number should be shown in the first position.  For instance, my Arc is a code 3.  Always check with your dealer (or other parts department) for final ordering though.

 

The code on this tag is as such:

A: Front springs

B: Rear springs

C: Front sway bar

D: Rear sway bar

E: Front strut insert

F: Rear shocks

(courtesy of partsmanager)

Lowers the car's centre of gravity 10 mm closer to the ground. Gives the car a more potent stance. The firmer springs and stiffer dampers provide even quicker response. Helps to improve grip in bends and encourages more enthusiastic driving.

 

I wish I knew more about this.  I do not know what prerequisites are for different trim styles.
