Sports/Touring, more differences?

[Honcho]

So I read an article earlier today (can't remember the source, I think it was one of the Emira Facebook groups) with an interview from a Lotus employee and they said that it's not just different spring and damper settings for the sports/touring chassis, but also different bushings and geometry. Does anyone in the know how accurate this might be? I know the alignment settings are slightly different but wondering if any of the links/mounting points are different too? Someone with parts numbers might be able to confirm this or not.

Yea. Given that the interview is of Gavan Kershaw, it's pretty accurate. There's no mention that there are different links or mounting points, but that the springs, dampers, geometry are different. I did see in that post that the "bushings and bump stops" are different, but I am not sure about this. As far as I know, the only parts difference is the damper and springs. My source is the parts list on Bell and Colvill.
