I didnt know they made a 90 sport. ??? I know the late 90s sports will not except the Calmini lift. I would look to spring spacers (Sky) or OME coils(ARB dealers).

'90 Sport???? I think you might want to double check what you've really got as they came along later. Anyway it can be be done.

How do i find out for sure if it a "sport edition"?? I was just guessing it was a "sport" b/c it had a sport sticker on the side that matched the other graphics that i assumed were original. Thanks again for everyones help.

There was an early 8V sport sold over here. It had a 95bhp engine  ;D  Suspension and frame was the same as the other models. It was replaced by the 16V.

If you have a pic of the front suspension I could tell if it was or not. If you cant figure out how to upload to Zukiworld you can just send it directly to my e mail.

I don't have a digital camera to take any pics. Is there any way to describe the front suspension to see if it's a sport or not? A friend of mine said it might have been just a sticker kit that was added with "sport" in it, he also said he didn't think that the "sport" was introduced until the later 90's.
