Z4M suspension differences

[Davz]

Apart from Arb's, what other suspension components are different between a standard Z4 and an M?

 

[buzyg]

Shocks and springs.

Lollipop bushes which are offset
Tie rod ends
The RTAB’s look the same though the part nos are different

 

[Davz]

Ta for the replies fellas.

Are the spring and shock rates much higher?

What effect does the offset have on the lollipops?

How are the tie rods different?

Surely the control arms and subframe are different too.

Open realoem and start comparing part numbers.....
It's something you can do yourself.

Yes I know I can compare part numbers but that doesn't provide the answer to the questions.....how are the parts different?
Do M parts fit an ordinary Z, will this improve the handling of a standard Z?

Some fit some dont. Some will improve, some dont. (and what is an 'improvement' anyway?!?)
You expect that someone will compile you a list with all 100 parts or so that are tied into the suspension of a car?

Chill out mate.

The OP’s question is not unreasonable and your responses are not contributing either.

I think the OP is lazy, both in how much efford he's putting in formulating his question/opening post as in how much research he can do himself.
From all the parts are lots of pictures to be found on the net so you can see in pretty good detail how they differ.

But if he wants an answer: apart from some nuts/bolts and suspension bushings everything on the z4m is different apart from the rear upper and lower suspension arm.
The front suspension arms are a direct fit (exact same dimensions) but have a different part number.

All you had to say was that. ^
