What exactly is the GT3 Suspension? and what changed on 04 gt2?

I know its not PSS9, so what is it. Can it be bought without buying a gt3.
Also whats the diff between gt2 (03 and 04) and GT3 suspension.
Thanks

rockitman has a reputation beyond repute

H&R Springs made especially for the car and a height adjustable custom damped bilstein shock (I believe?). It cannot be bought aftermarket, only from Porsche.

The GT2 for '04 rear wing, mirror housings, front hood intake all in carbon fiber, (no cost options), GT3 design wheels, ECU upgrade to 483HP.

The uprights, links, bushings, motor mounts, and various other suspension components are different than the non GT models.

According to MetalSolid, the springs on the GT2 are progressive in the front while the GT3's are linear.

The '04 valving on the GT2 is more akin to that of the GT3 as well.
