you amuse me. you really can't see the big picture. aftermarket springs are NOT just a lower height, they're also a stiffer spring rate for improved performance and to prevent bottoming out at the lower height. otherwise it would be exactly the same as cutting your stock springs.
And even IF the 1mzfe is lighter than the 5sfe, which i'm not entirely convinced of,(so if someone could get a scale and actually weigh it, i'd appreciate that) the overall weight of the vehicle with the different motor/trans combo needing the stiffer v6 springs. cuz what, you think that if he upgrades to the 1mzfe he's NOT going to have the added weight of the compatible transmission? you think the car will be lighter or something? just cuz the motor is lighter, doesnt change the fact that by the time the entire setup is in there the entire car is heavier.
and to clarify, we're not arguing because of springs. we're arguing because you had a rude, smart ass thing to say when if you look at the overall picture, no matter what, the v6 car is still heavier than the i4 and still has different springs. which i am in fact right about. Now, if you don't want to use the correct springs for the correct application, then by all means go for it, see what happens, in fact, let me know how it works for you, cuz i'd be very interested in knowing how it all turns out.
