993C4S, C2S & turbo all share the same front end pieces including chassis and suspension arms(C2S has different inner longitudinal pieces) & finish sheet metal/plastic pieces

RS uses the same chassis and brake pieces

C2 & C2S use the same chassis pieces & suspension arms but different brake m/c mount which is on the inner longitudinal suspension piece

So can a 993 C2 suspension be used on a 993 turbo or viceversa? I noticed some vendors would sell a new suspension labeled for all 993 setups while others will only list for C4S and turbo only.
Cheers

Yes, The arms and shocks can be switched around freely though attention should be paid to spring rates which are somewhat different among the various models and option packages
